As the search for the suspect continues, let’s recap what we know so far.
At 16:22 local time (21:22 GMT) Brown University sent out an urgent alert, warning of an active shooter on campus and urging people to “lock doors, silence phones and stay stay hidden until further notice”.
It also said people should run, evacuate safely if they could, hide or as a last resort they should “fight”.
Then, less than an hour later, at 17:11, Brown University issued a fresh update telling people to continue to take shelter.
“Police do not have a suspect in custody and continue to search for suspect(s),” the statement says.
“Brown coordinating with multiple law enforcement agencies on site. Emergency medical on scene.”
Moments ago, Brown University said there are reports of “shots fire near Governor Street”.
