The person of interest in the deadly mass shooting at Brown University has been ID’d as a 24-year-old man from Wisconsin who served in the Army and supported statehood for DC, law-enforcement sources told The Post.
Benjamin Erickson was nabbed before dawn Sunday at a Hampton Inn in Coventry, RI, after an 11-hour manhunt following a gunman opening fire at the Ivy League institution’s Providence campus during a final-exam study session Saturday.
Erickson, who is originally from Wisconsin, has lived in an apartment in Washington, DC, since 2024, with his voter registry showing a “statehood” party affiliation, according to public records.
Benjamin Erickson is the suspected killer. It happened during finals and on the eve of Hanukkah.
The shooting happened around 4:30 p.m. during a final exam review session at the Ivy League university for an economics class run by Rachel Friedberg, who also serves as a faculty associate of the school’s Program in Judaic Studies.
Friedberg’s research specifically focuses on economic impacts of immigrants in the US and Israel, with the professor previously serving four years on the faculty of the Department of Economics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, according to Brown.

Authorities are still hunting for the perpetrator of the deadly mass shooting, ...
OK, I live on the other side of the continent and do not have direct or inside knowledge, but it looks like either the shooter was amazingly skilled at concealing his identity, or Providence PD is pooing the screwch horribly.
