When police officers got to the room at around 6am Friday, they found Knopp and Montgomery both dead, having been shot in the head.
Each victim was shot at least once in what appeared to be an ‘isolated incident,’ police spokesperson Ira Cronin said at a briefing. 
A lockdown across campus lasted for about 90 minutes and later was isolated to  Crestone House, a student apartment complex on campus, school spokesperson Chris Valentine said.
Following the lockdown, the campus about 70 miles south of Denver remained closed for the day.

Sam’s mother, Amy Knopp, shared her concerns online just as the shooting was taking place. 
‘There were reports of an active shooter on campus at UCCS where our son, Sam, is a senior. At least one person is dead,’ she wrote. 
‘I haven’t heard from Sam. He lives in Alpine Village, where residents were told to shelter in place. The campus is in lockdown and is now closed today. 
‘PLEASE EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE BUT IT’S THE GODDAMNED GUNS! This hits way too close to home and it makes me want to vomit. All the ‘thoughts and prayers’ in the world mean nothing without action to back them up.’

‘Given this case’s active and fluid nature, additional information about those leads and any potential suspect details will not be released at this time,’ a press release from the police department read.
Following the campus closure, walk-in counseling was offered at the school’s wellness center over the weekend. 
For the march university staff handed out red, white, pink and yellow roses to everyone in attendance before the walk began. At the conclusion of the event, everyone was invited to place their roses on top of the mountain lion statue. Student body president Axel Brown noted in his speech that the flowers will be moved to a more permanent memorial inside the library.
