Providence Police Chief Oscar Perez Jr., a Colombian immigrant, declined to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/its-a-mess-team-biden-loses-track-of-20-million-covid-19-doses-report\/\" title=\"\u2018It\u2019s A Mess\u2019: Team Biden Loses Track Of 20 Million COVID-19 Doses: Report\">answer questions<\/a> from reporters about whether the shooter shouted &#8220;Allahu Akbar&#8221; before the attack, despite multiple witnesses claiming that the phrase was yelled. The phrase is commonly linked to radical Islamic terrorism, and authorities&#8217; reluctance to disclose this detail has sparked criticism. The article suggests that concerns over political correctness have led to the withholding of data such as the suspect&#8217;s race or ethnicity, which might help understand the motives and assist in the search. Additionally, Chief Perez&#8217;s choice to speak in Spanish during a U.S. nationwide press conference was noted and criticized. The overall tone of the article expresses distrust in law enforcement and media due to perceived bias and censorship of vital details related to the crime.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Oscar Perez Jr. &mdash; a Colombian immigrant who&rsquo;s the chief of the Providence Police Department &mdash; refused to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/senate-republicans-oppose-biden-nominee-who-worked-for-chinese-tech-company\/\" title=\"Senate Republicans Oppose Biden Nominee Who Worked For Chinese Tech Company\">answer direct questions<\/a> from reporters who asked if the Brown University gunman had yelled anything before shooting two people.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, an unidentified man <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/brown-university-victim-identified-leader-schools-college-republicans-group\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gunned down two students<\/a> on the campus of Brown University in Rhode Island.<\/p>\n<p>One of the victims was 19-year-old Ella Cook, the vice president of the school&rsquo;s Republican Club.<\/p>\n<p>At a news conference on Monday, Perez repeatedly dismissed questions about whether the shooter had yelled &ldquo;Allahu Akbar!&rdquo; before killing the victims.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The police are refusing to say what the Brown University shooter yelled before opening fire and kiIIing 2 people<\/p>\n<p>Witnesses say he shouted &ldquo;Allahu Akbar.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Why are the police covering this up?
