From Breitbart: A Brown University professor told Ocean State Media the shooting on Saturday happened in her classroom during a review for a final exam, and that the attacker “yelled something” then opened fire.
Economics professor Rachel Friedberg was not in class at the time, rather, the course was being handled by a teaching assistant.
The teaching assistant survived the attack and told Friedberg what occurred. Friedberg explained, “The room has stadium seating with doors that enter at the top. He said that the shooter came in the doors, yelled something — he couldn’t remember what he yelled — and started shooting.”
She added, “Students started to scramble to try to get away from the shooter, trying to get lower down in the stadium seating, and people got shot. I don’t know if they’re the only ones who got shot or not.”
The teaching assistant told CNN, “He came in, pointed the gun, and then screamed something. I don’t know what he said, and none of the other students know what he said. Then he just started shooting right after that.”
Conservatives are firing back on the claim that no one know what the shooter yelled.
🚨 Joseph Oduro says he was leading an economics study session at Brown University when the shooting started. He says the gunman yelled something, but claims it was “imperceptible,” and that students and detectives are still trying to figure it out.

Authorities first arrested a “person of interest,” initially believing they had the gunman, but released him on Sunday and have renewed their search for the gunman.
