McRae killed himself last night after going on the senseless rampage.
Verner was first victim to be identified in a statement from her hometown school district, which described her as ‘a tremendous student, athlete, [and] leader’ who ‘exemplified kindness.’
‘If you knew [Alex], you loved her and we will forever remember the lasting impact she has had on all of us,’ the statement read.
Alex was studying integrated biology and anthropology at MSU, and was set to graduate in 2024, according to her LinkedIn profile.
The second victim was identified by the Michigan State University Department of Police and Public Safety Police as Brian Fraser, a sophomore from Grosse Point.
According to Fraser’s LinkedIn page, he was studying business, and had previously worked as the head lifeguard at a Detroit country club.

Like Fraser, Anderson was also a graduate of the Grosse Pointe Public School system. Her family told WXYZ that she loved children and wanted to be a pediatrician one day.
Five others who were injured in the shooting remain hospitalized as of Tuesday afternoon.
The gunman has no known ties to the school and it remains unclear what his motive for the shooting is, or what kind of weapon he used.
McRae killed himself before police got to him, having murdered three MSU students in two different locations on campus last night and injured five others.
