Local resident recounts moments after university shooting: ‘Haven’t heard of anything like this’<\/p>\n

\u200b<\/p>\n

Elias Christian, a Providence resident who lives just blocks from Brown University\u2019s Barus and Holley engineering and physics building, said he first sensed something was wrong Saturday evening when he heard emergency vehicles racing toward campus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t lived here too long, just a couple years, but I haven\u2019t heard of anything like this happening,\u201d Christian told Fox News Digital. \u201c\u2026 This is known as kind of the safe part of the city and has a safer reputation in general.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the shooting feels especially jarring because of where it unfolded.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis\u00a0is kind of the heart of Brown,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Christian said he did not feel particularly scared himself, noting that police<\/a> appeared to have the situation \u201cunder control.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, he recognized that it must have been \u201cmuch scarier\u201d for those who were closer when the chaos began.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m sure it was so much scarier for people who were here before it was under control,\u201d Christian said. \u201cAnd all the students in this building and in the area.\u201d<\/p>\n
