An unknown suspect entered the Barus and Holley engineering building on the Ivy League campus just before 4:30 p.m. ET and opened fire, killing Ella Cook and Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov.
Cook, 19, was the president of the Brown University College Republicans.
Authorities early Sunday morning announced a person of interest had been detained, but that individual was later released due to lack of evidence, officials in Providence said.
Surveillance video of a person of interest has been released. The individual is seen in the videos wearing all black and a face covering. The individual is seen walking on foot in what appears to be a residential area.
Investigators have described the person of interest as a male, approximately 5-foot-8 with a stocky build.
