US Edition'Survivor' alum says she left Brown University building minutes before shooting
Nine people were injured in the shooting during final exams; one is in critical condition, six in intensive care, police have detained a suspect in their 30s.
- During final exams earlier this year, gunfire erupted at Brown University’s engineering building, prompting a campus lockdown, and police said they have a person of interest in custody.
- Eva Erickson left her lab for dinner because she felt very unproductive and believes she exited the building within five minutes of the shooting.
- Erickson sheltered in Brown's campus gym for about four hours while police searched the area, then was escorted to the Olney-Margolies Athletic Center and reunited with hockey teammates; the other lab member was safely evacuated.
- Police in Rhode Island said Sunday morning they have a person of interest in custody, and Oscar Perez, chief of the Providence police, confirmed the detained individual is in their 30s.
- At Brown, her research focuses on seal whisker sensing, and Eva Erickson, Survivor runner-up earlier this year, was the first openly autistic contestant on CBS show Survivor.
