The suspect was a 43-year-old with no known affiliation with the school, Rozman said. He wasn't a"student, faculty, staff," Rozman noted.A White House official told CBS News early Tuesday that President Biden had been briefed on the shooting and"spoke to Governor Whitmer this evening about the shooting at Michigan State University. The FBI and additional federal law enforcement are already on campus to support local and state response efforts underway.
"We mourn the loss of beautiful souls today and pray for those to continue to fight for their lives," the governor said. Whitmer, acknowledging that Feb. 14 marks the fifth anniversary of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, added that the shooting Monday at MSU came on the heels of massacres across the country in 2022, and, most recently, during a Lunar New Year celebration in Southern California.
Before naming McRae as the suspected gunman, officials had previously described the suspect as a Black male, short, wearing red shoes, a jean jacket and ball cap, and released photos of the suspect. They said he was believed to have fled on foot. There was an"overwhelming law enforcement response," Rozman said at an earlier news conference Monday evening.
