The man authorities believe committed the deadly shooting at Brown University was found dead inside a Salem, New Hampshire, storage unit, authorities said Thursday night.

Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, a 48-year-old former Brown graduate student and Portuguese national, was also believed to have killed a renowned physics professor this week near Boston.

Providence Police Chief Col. Oscar Perez said the suspect, whose last known address was in Miami, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound and acted alone, “as far as we know.”

      Yep. Police are ridiculous. Some member of the public turns in a shooter or big theft ring or something and the police are like “look how great we are at solving crimes!” Y’all didn’t do shit, you sat on your hands until someone else handed you the win.
