Police searching for suspects but believe there is no immediate threat to the university community.

The FIU family is shocked and saddened by the death of one of our students, Kendall Berry, who was stabbed on the Modesto A. Maidique Campus Thursday evening, March 25.

Kendall, 22, a junior from Haines City, FL, was a running back on our football team.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kendall’s family,” said FIU President Mark B. Rosenberg. “We are here to support them and our entire university community as all of us come to terms with this tragedy.”

Police are looking for suspects in this killing. At this time, police believe there is no immediate threat to the university community.

Because this is an ongoing investigation, we cannot reveal any more information. We hope to have more details as this investigation develops.
