The man shot at Harvard University yesterday has died, the Boston Globe reports. The still-unidentified victim was shot in the entrance of a residence hall, and taken to a hospital in what police described at the time as stable condition. The university says the suspect has likely fled the area. It’s unclear how the victim got inside the building; he’d need a keycard to get in, but one official says he isn’t a student.
