‘US college student plotted bloodbath’

Early Monday morning, police officers found the body of the 30-year-old James Oliver Seevakumaran in his dorm room with an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound and closed the seven-story residence hall, The Associated Press reported.

University Police Chief Richard Beary said the episode started when Seevakumaran pointed a gun at his roommate, who called police and holed up in a bathroom.

He added that Seevakumaran pulled a fire alarm at around the same time in an apparent attempt to force other students out into the open so that he could slaughter them.

Police said they found four makeshift explosive devices in a backpack, a .45-caliber handgun, a .22-caliber tactical rifle, and a couple of hundred rounds of ammunition in the student’s room.

Detectives found notes and other writings that indicated Seevakumaran had carefully planned the plot.

University officials said morning classes were canceled, but resumed at noon.
