WTNH just aired some new developments as well as reactions from Wes students on its 11:00 newscast. Police surrounded a motel on Washington St. and, when WTNH arrived, had "a man with his hands behind his head" but told the reporter "we are not sure if we are going to make an arrest. This is an active scene. Please step back for your safety." There was a SWAT team on site as well.
Edit 11:45: I've uploaded the video to YouTube and waiting for it to be processed. In the meantime, you may view it here.

The suspect in yesterday’s fatal shooting has not been apprehended. Based on the advice of local authorities, Wesleyan instructs all students to remain in their residences. Faculty and staff should not come to their offices unless otherwise instructed. We will be sending information soon in regard to food and other administrative services.
Please remain cautious. The police investigation continues, and we remain in contact with them about all developments. We will send information via the usual channels as it becomes available.
