Cody Cousins, 23, an engineering student at Purdue University, plead not guilty after he allegedly stabbed and shot Andrew Boldt, 22, also an engineering student on Tuesday in a classroom in the Electric Engineering Building on campus around 12 p.m.
The authorities found Cousins sitting outside the building with his hands behind his back. According to Reuters, bloody footprints, a hand gun and its casings, with a knife were found by Boldt’s body. Part of the attack was caught on a security video. Cousins was brought to the Tippecanoe County Jail to face murder charges on Thursday.
According to International Business Times, there is not much information on Cousins. He had a run in with police after being intoxicated, he has two addresses-one in Warsaw, Ind, and Centerville, Ohio.
Police do not have a lead on why Cousins attacked Boldt; however they think that Cousins only targeted Boldt and no one else. Cousins will be held without bail until his trial.
