University of Virginia Police Chief Tim Longo said the suspected shooter has been apprehended.
Christopher Darnell Jones' gun raised concerns among officials months before Sunday night's shooting at the University of Virginia, which left three dead and two wounded.Chief Tim Longo announced that Jones, the suspect, had been apprehended by police. He also revealed that the university's threat assessment team received reports from the student affairs office about Jones making a comment about owning a gun to a third-party individual.

According to Longo, the office of student affairs made contact with the reporting person and attempted to contact Jones. Authorities also spoke with Jones' roommate, who said that he was not aware that Jones owned a gun and never saw it.
