Officials said the suspect in last week's mass shooting at Brown University also killed MIT professor Nuno Loureiro in Brookline on Monday.

The investigation took a dramatic turn Thursday night. Police say the suspected gunman, Claudio Neves Valente, died by suicide at a storage facility in New Hampshire.

There are several unanswered questions, including the gunman's exact motives. WBUR Morning Edition host Tiziana Dearing spoke to U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Leah Foley to ask about the next chapter of the investigation.

This segment aired on December 19, 2025.
