BREAKING: Authorities have identified 24 yo Benjamin Erickson as the person of interest in the Brown University shooting.

An Army vet who passed sniper training, served as a rifleman, worked ceremonies at Arlington, and assisted with security near the President.

Recently enrolled at Brown after psych courses in Wisconsin. No criminal record. A former classmate called him ‘wicked smart’ with zero signs of extremism — a profile that raises more questions than answers.
