The Colorado Springs Police Department’s Violent Crimes Section has ruled the death as suspicious and will continue to investigate the incident.

CSPD reports all subjects are accounted for and said the UCCS campus remains safe.

The Family Development Center closed for all day Thursday for detectives to process the crime scene. All other UCCS offices and buildings operated on a normal schedule.
