College student Elizabeth Howell was killed on Friday in New York City close to her campus, according to the authorities.
On February 18, Howell, age 21, was shot and killed in Potsdam, which is around 200 miles from Albany. Just before 6 o’clock in the evening, police arrived at the murder scene where they found Howell shot and unconscious. When she arrived at Canton-Potsdam Hospital, she was pronounced dead. The incident’s circumstances were not made public by the authorities.
The following day, when police reported hearing gunfire close to campus, the university issued a shelter-in-place order. On February 19, Michael J. Snow was detained and charged with second-degree murder.
Snow was booked at the St. Lawrence County Jail after being arraigned. The university claims he has no affiliation with the school, and it is unclear how he and Howell first met.
Authorities are looking for Snow between 5 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on February 18. At the time, he was seen traveling through Potsdam, Hopkinton, Malone, Westville, Hogansburg, and Massena in a gray Honda Civic with the New York license plate KVE2731.
Police claim that the driver’s side door was also harmed. The accused, Michael Snow, is a resident of Massena, New York, and is 31 years old. Very little information is readily available about him. Snow’s former sister, Angela Moscow, reportedly claimed that she had known him since he was eight years old.
He and his mother occupied a residence near my parents. His parents aren’t married anymore. Although his father lived elsewhere, he would shift between his mothers and father. He’s strange, so I think he’s only ever had two women and no long-term relationships.”
Mossow continued by calling Snow “just an oddity.” She claimed that Michael had trouble finding work because Elizabeth was murdered on his birthday and because he had problems with his mental health and substance abuse.
Senior Elizabeth Howell attended the SUNY Potsdam Crane School of Music. This year was supposed to be the year of her graduation. She was called Beth. The deceased student, who was 21 years old, was a cellist who played in the Crane Symphony Orchestra, according to a statement from Dr. Phil Neisser, president of SUNY Potsdam.
She was an aspirational teacher with a bright future. We celebrate her life and mourn her passing as a campus community.
The institution issued a joint statement mourning Elizabeth’s passing and declaring their solidarity with her. Elizabeth Howell’s parents also expressed their sorrow, saying that their daughter was shot off-campus because she was in the “wrong location at the wrong time.”
She was a girl without enemies, according to her father Joe Howell, who spoke to the publication The Post. His wife Ann described their daughter as a very involved member of her community who taught cello, swimming, and lifeguarding and also performed in orchestras.
