Police have confirmed the identity of the alleged shooter as Trystan Andrew Terrell, 22, a former student at UNC Charlotte.
Terrell has no prior criminal record, and campus police chief Jeff Baker described Terrell as "not somebody on our radar."
Terrell is charged with two counts of murder, four counts of attempted first-degree murder, four counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, discharging a firearm on educational property and possession of a gun on educational property.
The handgun Terrell allegedly used in the attack was legally purchased and he had a "lot of ammo." Police have not determined a motive for the shooting or the choice of Kennedy Hall, the campus administration building, to launch the attack.
