Overview
- The shooter remains at large as the FBI releases person-of-interest images and offers $100,000 for tips.
- Investigators say a single shot was fired from the roof of UVU’s Losee Center roughly 200–300 yards from the stage, with video showing a figure fleeing on the roof.
- About 3,000 people attended the outdoor event, where witnesses reported no bag checks or metal detectors, and UVU’s police chief said six officers, including plainclothes, were assigned.
- UVU closed the campus through Sept. 15 for forensic work, and students criticized delayed, inaccurate alerts and confusing lockdown instructions.
- Colleges are reassessing event security, with San Jose State increasing police presence and experts noting countersniper-level defenses are rarely feasible for routine campus talks.
