"My boyfriend and I wanted to leave flowers for all the victims and just like, I don't know, I guess, go back to Barus and Holley (building) in the way that we can, so we're gonna have to, we're gonna have to be back here and back on campus, and this is just like a way for us to get closure."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Zoe Kass, Brown University Senior:
"One thing I do wanna mention is that all the talk of like the door, the doors were gonna be unlocked that day because sometimes I can't even access that building because I'm not an engineer. Sometimes my boyfriend's key doesn't even work and he is like a concentrator doing a thesis and needs to be in there for experiments. Sometimes his key doesn't even work. So like there actually are moments where those doors are locked and that wouldn't have made a difference. People at the school are super friendly, like this is an amazing community to be in. People will open the door, and let you in and let you go do your work, so at the end of the day, all I know like we want to feel safe, but the only thing that's going to make us feel safer is like not having access to these guns."

"We thought there was a chemical leak, like I convinced myself like that my chest was heavy. He's like, 'yeah, there's like a chemical leak, like, you know, it smells like, you know, wood burning and stuff in the, the BDW,' so it's easy to convince myself. And then we got to the door and we opened the door and so we move out of the way, all of like 30 police officers with like their weapons drawn."

"So many people spend their time in Barus and Holley (building), so many people like walk those streets where he's been shown, and it feels like such a violation of like our sense of safety. It just, it's disgusting. Just thinking about him and how he looks just makes me so angry and so sick."

STORYLINE:
Authorities are again searching for the person seen in grainy video walking away from the Brown University shooting that killed two students and injured nine.

Students and other community members were laying flowers at memorials near campus Tuesday.

Senior Brown University student Zoe Kass and her boyfriend were working on assignments in an engineering building Saturday when they heard loud screams.

"We thought there was a chemical leak, like I convinced myself like that my chest was heavy," Kass said.

The two left the building and were met by numerous law enforcement officers outside.

Officials said late Sunday that they released a person of interest they had detained earlier in the day, finding no reason to keep him in custody.

This setback left law enforcement without a known suspect.

The shooting happened Saturday during a busy time on campus, causing chaos and a lockdown.
