UNC-Chapel Hill Shooting

On Aug. 28, 2023, Associate Professor Zijie Yan was fatally shot in a science building on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Graduate student Tailei Qi, 34, is being held without bond on charges of first-degree murder and possession of a gun on educational property in connection with the shooting death. The attack and hours-long lockdown terrified students and faculty who had returned to class a week before the shooting for the start of the fall semester. ¹ÏÉñapp is committed to covering the aftermath of the shooting and what it means for students, faculty, families and the Chapel Hill community.
