"Authorities found Claudio Neves Valente, 48, dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a New Hampshire storage facility on Thursday night, said Providence's police chief, Col. Oscar Perez. The autopsy determined that Neves Valente, a Portuguese national who had been living in the U.S., died on Tuesday, the same day that his countryman, MIT professor Nuno F.G. Loureiro, died at a hospital, New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella's office said in a statement. It didn't note an exact time of death."
"Authorities believe that after killing two students and wounding nine others last Saturday at Brown, where he was a graduate student studying physics during the 2000-01 school year, Neves Valente shot Loureiro at his Boston-area home on Monday night. Investigators on Friday were still trying to sort out why Neves Valente allegedly opened fire on the campus decades after he dropped out and later killed Loureiro, whom he attended school with in Portugal in the 1990s."
Claudio Neves Valente, 48, was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a New Hampshire storage facility; an autopsy determined he had been dead for two days. Authorities suspect Valente in a mass shooting at Brown University that killed two students and wounded nine, and in the later killing of MIT professor Nuno F.G. Loureiro at his Boston-area home. Investigators believe Valente acted alone and are investigating motives, noting he had been a Brown graduate student in 2000-01 and had attended school with Loureiro in Portugal during the 1990s. Portugal expressed surprise and offered assistance.
