A suspect was arrested, motive isn’t known and the weapon has not been found, says UNC Police Chief Brian James.

A suspect was arrested about an hour and a half after shots were reported, UNC Police Chief Brian James said on Monday at a news conference. Students and faculty at the flagship campus had barricaded themselves in dorm rooms, offices and classrooms for hours until a lockdown was lifted. Authorities are not releasing the suspect’s name and formal charges have not yet been filed, James said. It's unclear if the suspect knew the victim, who police have not yet named while they reach out to relatives, James said.

Apparent shooting at University of North Carolina strikes fear into students and facultyAn apparent shooting has happened on the University of North Carolina’s flagship campus. The Chapel Hill school issued an alert around 1 p.m. Monday warning of an “armed, dangerous person on or near campus” and urging people to go inside and avoid windows. Authorities haven’t provided details of the alleged shooting, including whether anyone had been shot. But Gov. Roy Cooper posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he had spoken to the Orange County sheriff and the state’s public safety secretary and “pledged all state resources needed to capture the shooter and protect the UNC campus.” About 90 minutes after the school’s first alert went out, it warned on X that the “suspect” was still “at large.”
