Investigators said the man’s transient lifestyle and social isolation made his intentions hard to track before shootings that killed two Brown students and an M.I.T. professor.
The parents of the suspect in the Brown and M.I.T. killings had not seen or heard from him since he left Portugal to enroll at a graduate program at Brown more than two decades ago.
Claudio Neves Valente and Nuno Loureiro, the M.I.T. professor he is accused of killing, were classmates at the University of Lisbon’s Instituto Superior Técnico from 1995 to 2000.
A Reddit user provided information that helped identify Claudio Manuel Neves Valente as the suspect not only in the campus shooting but also in the murder of an M.I.T. professor.
A vehicle was loaded onto a tow truck outside the storage facility in Salem, N.H., where the Brown University shooting suspect’s body was found on Thursday.
The professor, Nuno F.G. Loureiro, was pronounced dead at a hospital on Tuesday morning. The authorities said they had opened a homicide investigation.
