The identity of the shooter in the recent Brown University incident has not been fully and conclusively released by all authorities yet, and reporting around it is still evolving. Some major outlets mention a “person of interest” identified by U.S. media as a man named Benjamin Erickson , but this is described as a law‑enforcement identification in an ongoing investigation rather than a finalized public naming of the shooter by all official agencies.

Because this is a very recent, sensitive case with victims, details can change as investigators confirm facts, so any name circulating now should be treated as provisional and not as a definitive, court‑established identification of “the shooter.”
