Daniels is believed to have fled the campus in a vehicle after the shooting.
University spokesman Chris Cook says campus police found drugs in Daniels’ dorm.
They then brought him back to police headquarters for a ‘standard debriefing’.
Then, he allegedly pulled out a gun and shot the cop in the head, killing him.
KCBD reports that the suspect is 6 feet tall, 140 pounds, with red hair and blue eyes, wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans.
