A U.S. service member died Thursday during a mission against al-Shabaab near Bari, Somalia, according to U.S. Africa Command.

U.S. forces were conducting an advise-and-assist mission about 40 miles west of Mogadishu, Somalia's capital, with members of the Somali National Army.

"Al-Shabaab presents a threat to Americans and American interests," U.S. Africa Command said in a statement today. "Al Shabaab's affiliate, al-Qaeda has murdered Americans; radicalizes and recruits terrorists and fighters in the United States; and attempts to conduct and inspire attacks against Americans, our allies and our interests around the world, including here at home.

"U.S. forces are assisting partner forces to counter al-Shabaab in Somalia to degrade the al-Qaeda affiliate's ability to recruit, train and plot external terror attacks throughout the region and in America," the statement added.

Could become second state to prohibit diesel delinquency

A new anti-rolling coal bill has passed both branches of the Colorado state legislature and is headed to the governor's office to be signed off, according to a report from The Colorado Independent. If the bill goes through, Colorado will become the second state to ban rolling coal behind New Jersey.

The bill was introduced by Democratic Representative Joann Ginal of Fort Collins with support from Republican Senator Don Coram of Montrose. Ginal's first two attempts to push for an anti-coal rolling bill were defeated in the Senate, one last year and the second earlier this year. If you're not familiar with the term, rolling coal is when a diesel vehicle purposely spews unburnt, soot-rich exhaust.

With Coram's help, the new bill was revised to remove language found in the previous bills regarding the driver's intent "to harass or obscure the vision of cyclists, pedestrians, and other drivers." Many Republican lawmakers argued that proving intent would be difficult. In order to roll coal, some of the vehicle's smog equipment would have to have been illegally and intentionally modified, supporters argued. The revised bill now describes a "nuisance exhibition of motor vehicle exhaust" as "the act of knowingly blowing black smoke through one or more exhaust pipes attached to a motor vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating of 14,000 pounds or less in a manner that obstructs or obscures the view of another driver, a bicyclist, or a pedestrian."

The changes to the third bill gained support from previous opponent Sen. Ray Scott of Grand Junction of the Senate Transportation Committee. The bill moved on to clear the Senate with support from all 17 Democrats and five Republicans and a 40 to 25 vote in favor of the bill in the House.

If the governor signs off on the bill, rolling coal will become a class A traffic offense, and command a $100 fine.

What do you think of the proposed law? Should rolling coal be banned Nation-wide? Tell us in the comments below.

Atlanta bridge collapse: How police saved lives

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Watch "New Day" and "CNN Newsroom" each Friday to see inspiring stories of officers going above and beyond the call of duty.
Somehow, in the middle of a Thursday rush hour on March 30, a critical transportation artery in one of America's most traffic-challenged cities had caught fire.

They had raced toward the fire from a nearby location after hearing frantic police radio chatter. "I could tell right away from the first officers that were witnessing the fire, I could tell from their voices on the radio, that it was getting out of control," Heald said.

Heald and Tyler quickly accessed the situation: Firefighters had been called but had not yet arrived. Traffic was steadily stacking up in both directions on both sides of the bridge. Traffic had to be stopped immediately.

Although police had already shut down traffic closest to them, Heald and Thomas knew that to completely stop traffic, they had to figure a way to get through the wall of fire to the other side.

"I told my officer to drive as fast as you can through these flames cause it's going to be hot," recalled Heald. Tyler hit the accelerator and sent the patrol car hurtling through the firewall. "And for a second and a half, I felt that heat ... it was unbelievably hot."

When they emerged on the other side, they could see flames billowing all the way up from the ground and over the sides of the highway bridge. Flames were so out of control they were flowing onto the adjacent bridge where traffic was also stacking up heading the opposite direction.

On foot - standing on the bridge near a raging inferno -- the officers used hand signals to get the attention of commuters, halt traffic and turn their vehicles away from the bridge. They cleared a path for firefighters to get where they needed to be so they could start battling the blaze.

The bridge collapses

Suddenly they heard the disturbing sound of booming explosions. "It sounded like when a transformer blows on a telephone pole, it was that loud and extreme," Heald remembered.

Another officer suggested the noise might be the sound of concrete breaking up from the intense heat. He said there could be a chance of the bridge collapsing.

Less than three minutes later, the bridge collapsed.

"It was amazing that no lives were lost and not just that, but no one even got hurt," recalled Heald.

Firefighter perimeter credited with saving lives

Atlanta Fire Department Engine 19 and Truck 15 were the first firefighters to arrive at the raging blaze. Firefighters quickly assessed the scene and noticed chunks of concrete falling from the bridge. Preparing for the worst, they established and expanded a "collapse zone perimeter," which saved lives, said Atlanta Fire Department Battalion Chief James McLemore.

"We could have easily buried people in there," he said. "The foresight of those guys on the first initial response did a great job. And that just led to the scene being a totally safe scene."

Nonetheless, damage from the fire has triggered what Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed has called a "transportation crisis." An estimated quarter of a million people travel that corridor daily. It's also one of the Southeast's most important north-south traffic routes.

The closed section of the interstate is expected to open by May 25 -- just in time for the traffic-heavy Memorial Day weekend.

The National Transportation Safety Board has been investigating the fire and bridge collapse, which is blamed on the ignition of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes and fiberglass conduits stored under the overpass.

'Skill, courage and strength'

Fast forward to April 13, in the White House Roosevelt Room, where 15 Atlanta-area police, fire and rescue officers gathered to meet with President Donald Trump.

"Georgia state police and Atlanta police took fast action to get motorists away from danger. Then our brave firefighters battled 40-foot flames, which was incredible," the President said. "Everybody was watching. Your skill and courage saved many lives and represented true strength."

Recalled Heald, "When you get the call from the President's Office ... that's a game changer."

The Utah Jazz, down 1-0 in the best-of-seven NBA Western Conference semifinals, tried to even the series with the Golden State Warriors in Game 2 on Thursday, May 4, 2017 (5/4/2017) at Oracle Arena in Oakland, California.

Here's the AP recap:
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- Now, the Golden State Warriors want Draymond Green to pack his 3-point shot for the altitude of Salt Lake City.

Green showed Quin Snyder his hot hand and range up close, knocking down five 3-pointers and scoring 21 points before a brief knee scare late in the Golden State Warriors' 115-104 victory over the Utah Jazz on Thursday night for a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference semifinals.

"We love that shot. It gives us a huge lift," Stephen Curry said of Green's perimeter touch. "Hopefully that jumper travels when we go to Utah because those shots will be open."

Kevin Durant added 25 points with 13 free throws, 11 rebounds and seven assists, while Curry had 23 points, seven assists and played smothering defense as Golden State stayed unblemished through six playoff games.

Gordon Hayward overcame a poor Game 1 and slow start in this one to score 33 points, and Rudy Gobert had 16 points and 16 rebounds before fouling out for a Jazz team missing injured point guard George Hill. He was ruled out earlier in the day because of a sore left big toe.

Game 3 is Saturday night in Salt Lake City.

Green received chants of "Dray-mond!" when he headed for the locker room with 7:24 to play, then cheers when he returned at the 5:16 mark. He came up awkwardly after hitting the floor on a drive, then grabbed at his left knee -- which the team said he "tweaked."

"I knew my knee was just locking up a little bit. I had it before," he said.

Snyder made it clear when the series began he won't be alienating Green again by daring him to let it fly from long range -- or saying anything that could be perceived as a slight.

Five months after the Jazz coach commented about allowing the emotional Golden State star to shoot from way out, Snyder said before the game he had learned his lesson about fueling the All-Star forward.

Green has been fueling himself just fine, and his teammates, too -- delivering on the offensive side this game after establishing the Warriors' defensive intensity during the first five playoff games.

All his 3s were in the first half as the Warriors led wire to wire again. Golden State's six straight victories to begin a postseason are a franchise record.

Green also had seven rebounds, six assists, four steals and another block to bring his six-game playoff total to 20.

The Jazz will have to hope more of their shots start falling once back home.

Hayward began 1 for 5 but bounced back to shoot 11 of 21 after going 4 for 15 in Game 1.

"We play with attitude when we get down. We have to do it from the beginning," Gobert said. "I think we need to play angry from the first minute."

Utah cut the lead to six on Rodney Hood's jumper with 9:55 remaining in the third and trailed by 10 heading into the final 12 minutes. The Warriors went on a 5-0 run but had a tough time closing it out.

"There's no excuse for that. We're 6-0, you couldn't ask for a better start, but this is the playoffs and we can't let teams get confident," Klay Thompson said. "I thought we did that tonight."

Warriors coach Steve Kerr missed his fourth straight game as he deals with symptoms stemming from complications after two back surgeries following the 2015 championship run. Kerr won't travel with the team to Utah as he seeks answers in his healing and goes to medical appointments. Mike Brown and a veteran coaching staff are leading the way.

"We don't want to rationalize being here because this is the first time we've been in this situation for a while," Snyder said of being down 0-2.
TIP-INS
Jazz: The Jazz managed only 15 first-quarter points on 5-for-18 shooting and missed seven of 10 3-point attempts. ... After a 44-37 rebounding advantage in Game 1, the Warriors led the way on the boards 47-39.

Warriors: Green notched his 11th career 20-point game in the postseason. ... Golden State matched its 2017 postseason high for assists in a half with 19 in the first. ... The Warriors were set to fly about noon Friday then practice upon arrival. ... The Warriors had 17 turnovers after totaling just 24 spanning the previous three games, the team's fewest since 23 over three games in December 1986.
POINT GUARD BY COMMITTEE
Snyder knew the Jazz couldn't pick up Hill's production with one person.

"George's scoring and shot-making ability is something we miss when he's not playing," Snyder said. "It's a shared load. It doesn't really fall to one guy in particular."

Snyder emphasized his guards would have to pick up Green bringing the ball up the floor, saying, "He's like Magic Johnson out there pushing the ball."

Golden State has too much firepower for most teams in the league, especially when their opponent's top scorer has an off night. Gordon Hayward scored just 12 points on 4-for-15 shooting and was 2 for 9 from 3-point range in a 106-94 loss.
Here's what you need to know:
Who: Utah Jazz vs. Golden State Warriors

What: Game 2, Western Conference semifinals

When: Thursday, May 5, 2017

Time: 10:30 p.m. Eastern

TV: ESPN

Livestream: WatchESPN

Line: Warriors -13
Game capsule:
NEED TO KNOW: The Warriors cruised to a 106-94 victory in Game 1 thanks in large part to Draymond Green standing out over Jazz C Rudy Gobert in a matchup of two of the favorites for defensive player of the year honors. Green's versatility against Utah's ball movement was invaluable while Gobert occasionally had difficulty staying with guards when forced to switch on the pick-and-roll.

Knicks interested in Ntilikina?

KEEP AN EYE ON: The Splash Brothers. The Warriors shot just 7 for 29 from 3-point range in Game 1, an uncharacteristically poor 24 percent. Steph Curry and Klay Thompson were a combined 4 for 12, and Golden State still won easily. When the shots start falling, look out.

INJURY UPDATE: None to report.

PRESSURE IS ON: Gordon Hayward. Utah's forward was sensational in the first-round win over the Los Angeles Clippers. The Jazz need an effort closer to the 40 points he scored in Game 3 of that series than the 12 he put up in Game 1 against Golden State.

North Korea claims CIA plotted to kill Kim Jong-un

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
North Korea has accused US and South Korean agents of plotting to kill its Supreme Leader, Kim Jong-un.

A North Korean referred to only as "Kim" was paid to carry out an attack with biochemical substances, the ministry of state security said.

The plot was foiled, it said, but gave no details on the fate of "Kim". The CIA declined to comment and South Korea has issued no statement so far.

The North's claim comes amid continued high tension on the Korean peninsula.

US President Donald Trump has promised to "solve" North Korea and stop it developing nuclear weapons.
Full text of North's allegation
An unconvincing case: Stephen Evans, BBC News, Seoul

The statement should be treated with scepticism. The regime has a track record of false information. It would be surprising if American or South Korean intelligence agencies didn't try to have agents in North Korea but the specific allegations about an assassination plot raise many questions.

Why hasn't a suspect been produced? Why does the KCNA statement cite poisoning at one moment and a bombing the next? How would anyone get access to Kim Jong-un, a man perpetually surrounded by squads of protectors and whose movements are secret?

Journalists who go to Pyongyang have cell-phones taken off them whenever they go to events where he might be, presumably to prevent tracking - so how would an ordinary citizen get more access?

Plots to kill Kim Jong-un may have been hatched but a bald statement by the media controlled by a vicious regime does not add up to convincing evidence.

'Human scum'

The ministry of state security statement, carried by state news agency KCNA, said the CIA and South Korean intelligence services had "hatched a vicious plot to hurt the supreme leadership of the DPRK".

It did not mention Kim Jong-un by name, but he is widely referred to as the supreme leader.

The ministry said a plot had been hatched to use "bomb terrorism" to target the supreme leadership at a military parade or at an event at the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, the mausoleum of Kim Il-sung, the country's founding leader.

It said "Kim" had been told that the best method was the use of "biochemical substances including radioactive substance and nano poisonous substance" whose results would "appear after six or 12 months".

Killing Kim? How the 'plot' unfolded

June 2014: A North Korean working at a timber firm in the Khabarovsk territory of far-eastern Russia is "corrupted and bribed" by CIA and South Korean intelligence agents. The man - "Kim" - is given cash and a "satellite transmitter-receiver" and returns to Pyongyang

January, May, August, September 2016: "Kim" is in satellite contact with South Korean agents on handling biochemical agents and on the possible sites of an assassination attempt

March and April 2017: "Kim" meets a South Korean agent in the city of Dandong in China and is given a new transmitter and more cash. Further communications take place in April. The last date that appears in the North Korean statement is "early May", when "Kim" is supposed to receive "necessary equipment" via a "liaison centre" he has set up with his funding. No details are given on "Kim's" apprehension or fate
Source: Ministry of state security statement via KCNA Full text of North's allegation
"Only the CIA can produce such substance", it said, adding that South Korea had borne the funding.

The ministry alleged that the North Korean man had been "turned" by the CIA and the South Korean intelligence service while working in Russia in 2014.

The ministry refers to two payments to "Kim" of $20,000 (£15,500) and a further two of $100,000 for "bribery" and obtaining equipment. It refers to another of $50,000 but it is unclear if this is additional.

On his return to Pyongyang, it says, he was instructed to provide detailed information about a frequently used event ground and to assess possible methods of attack.
What's changed between US and N Korea? Trump: I would meet Kim Jong-un North Korea crisis: Your questions answered
The ministry statement gave no details of how the alleged plan had been uncovered or about the fate of "Kim", whom it described as "human scum".

The ministry said the "intelligence and plot-breeding organisations of the US imperialists and the puppet clique", referring to the South, would be swept away.

Earlier this year, Kim Jong-un's half brother, Kim Jong-nam, was killed with the banned nerve agent VX at Kuala Lumpur international airport. South Korea and Malaysia say it was an assassination carried out by the North.

'Major, major conflict'

A war of words between the West and nuclear-armed North Korea has escalated in recent weeks, with Pyongyang threatening to carry out a sixth nuclear test.

On Saturday, North Korea conducted its second failed ballistic missile test in two weeks.

The US has sent a warship to the region and installed a controversial anti-missile defence system in South Korea.

President Trump has warned of "major, major conflict" with North Korea.

But he also said this week he would be willing to meet Kim Jong-un, in the right circumstances. The White House quickly clarified that conditions were "clearly not there right now" and said the North should "end its provocative behaviour immediately".

Kendall Jenner stars on Vogue's India culture cover, causing controversy

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Vogue India has been blasted online for its decision to feature Jenner, a white American, instead of an Indian model on the cover of its 10th anniversary issue.

Many people have said it's yet another example of a missed opportunity to celebrate women of color.

A spokeswoman for Vogue declined to comment on the controversy. Representatives for Jenner did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

A post by Vogue announcing the cover has attracted hundreds of negative comments, many of them expressing disappointment that the magazine did not hire a local model.

"Yes, it's pretty, but we're not celebrating white/European beauty standards...we're trying to celebrate Indian women of color," wrote Instagram user Sabrina Martinez, 17, adding that as a woman of color, seeing the image hurt.

"It says that's the beauty standard, it says that you can't be the epitome of beauty if you're not white," she told CNN. "Even this magazine that's supposed to be celebrating another culture, another type of beauty is not recognizing even what it's supposed to be standing for."

For some Indians, the cover was an insulting reminder of the country's obsession with whitening creams and light skin. But 22-year-old Harnidh Kaur, from Mumbai, thought that if anything, Jenner had been made to appear darker.

"If you compare it to her past covers, you look at them and she's definitely (been) bronzed into an Indian face," she said.

"In a country where you're struggling with colorism and shade discrimination, to see that -- it's very insulting."

The photo spreads inside the magazine did feature some Indian faces, including Bollywood actors Sushant Singh Rajput and Hong Kong-born Katrina Kaif. The piece was shot by Italian photographer Mario Testino in India's pink city, Jaipur.

But the decision to choose Jenner for a cover celebrating India still left many upset. Jenner's photos appear on all of Vogue India's social media handles.

Unemployment rate falls to lowest level since May 2007

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Bloomberg 1 hr ago Michelle Jamrisko

U.S. payroll gains rebounded in April by more than forecast and the jobless rate unexpectedly fell to 4.4 percent, signaling that the labor market remains healthy and should support continued increases in consumer spending.

The 211,000 increase followed a 79,000 advance in March that was lower than previously estimated, a Labor Department report showed Friday. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for a 190,000 gain. While the unemployment rate is now the lowest since May 2007, wages were a soft spot in the report, climbing 2.5 percent from a year earlier.

The brighter figures follow a weaker-than-expected reading in March, when payrolls were partly depressed by a snowstorm that slammed the Northeast during the survey week. Strengthening business sentiment might be translating into hiring, and the data should keep Federal Reserve policy makers on track to raise interest rates in the coming months after officials declared the first-quarter slowdown to be temporary.

"The labor market has progressively gotten tighter and tighter," Jim O'Sullivan, chief U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics Ltd in Valhalla, New York, said before the report. The job-growth trend is "pretty strong, relative to the demographics -- more than enough to keep unemployment down over time."

The report showed revisions to the previous two months subtracted 6,000 jobs from payrolls. The first quarter saw a 176,000 average monthly increase after a 187,000 average pace in

2016.

Fed Forecast

The unemployment rate compares with economists' projection for 4.6 percent. It's now below the 4.5 percent level where Fed policy makers in March had forecast it would reach in the fourth quarter, based on their median estimate.

Employment gains were broad-based though concentrated in services in April. Leisure and hospitality registered a 55,000 increase, education and health services was up 41,000 and financial activities rose by 19,000. Retail rebounded with a 6,300 increase following a revised loss of 27,400.

Manufacturing and construction jobs rose but at a weaker pace than at the start of 2017. Factories added 6,000 jobs after a 13,000 gain, while construction workers rose by 5,000 following 1,000 in March.

Total private employment, which excludes government agencies, climbed by 194,000 in April, following a 77,000 advance the prior month. Government payrolls rose by 17,000 in April, including a 6,000 decline at federal agencies and 23,000 increase at state and local governments.

Wage growth accelerated on a monthly basis to 0.3 percent from a revised 0.1 percent gain in March. At the same time, the

2.5 percent year-over-year gain in average hourly earnings was the weakest since August, following a 2.6 percent rise in March.

The employment cost index increased 0.8 percent in the first quarter for the best performance since the end of 2007, a separate Labor Department report showed last week.

Healthy Outlook

Absent faster wage growth, consumers have retained a healthy outlook as they've largely socked away savings from income gains including stronger stock and housing prices. Weaker household purchases in the first quarter reflected a slowdown in automobile sales, which are easing to a more sustainable rate, and smaller home-heating bills owing to unusually warm weather.

Dwindling labor-market slack also is helping workers gain bargaining power. Beyond the broad unemployment rate, measures of spare workforce capacity that are favored by Trump officials showed further progress toward pre-recession levels in April.

The underemployment rate, a measure that includes those working part-time who would take a full-time job if it were available, dropped to 8.6 percent, the lowest since November 2007, just before the last recession began. It was from 8.9 percent in March.

The number of discouraged workers fell by 5,000 in April to 460,000, and was 363,000 the month the last recession started. The participation rate, which indicates the share of working-age people who are employed or looking for work, decreased to 62.9 percent from 63 percent the prior month.

The seasonally adjusted number of people working part-time who would prefer a full-time job fell to 5.27 million, the lowest since April 2008, moving closer to the 4.62 million reading from December 2007.

The pilot and co-pilot of a cargo plane contracted by UPS died after the aircraft zoomed off the runway while trying to land at an airport in West Virginia, officials said.

After crashing at Yeager Airport in Charleston at around 7 a.m. Friday morning, the plane went down a steep, wooded hill. Emergency crews were trying to reach the crash site from above and below, Fox 11 reported.

No names have been released.

Initial reports said four people were believed to be on the plane at the time of the incident. That number was decreased to two.

Mike Plante, spokesman for Yeager Airport, told Fox 11 the name of the company that owns the plane is Air Cargo Carriers. A corporate pilot said the company contracts for UPS.

Plante said there was no indication of any issues with the aircraft before the crash.

"This is a tragic event not only for us at the airport, but for air cargo carriers, the company that owned it, and I'm sure the UPS family as well," he said.

The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating.

A giant robot can now 3D print a building.

Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created a robotic system that built the basic structure of a building in less than 14 hours. The dome-like structure is 50 feet in diameter and 12 feet high.

The prototype is essentially a vehicle with a large industrial robotic arm for reach, and a smaller arm for dexterity. Different tools can be attached to the smaller arm, such as a welding system or a spray head that shoots out building materials like foam.

"With this process, we can replace one of the key parts of making a building, right now. It could be integrated into a building site tomorrow," said Steven Keating, co-author of a paper published in the journal "Science Robotics."

The technology could allow for faster, cheaper and more adaptable building construction compared to traditional methods, according to the researchers. Unlike other 3D printing systems, their free-moving design can create an object of any size.

MIT's system -- called "Digital Construction Platform" -- is intended to be self-sufficient, but right now it requires humans to monitor it for safety reasons. In the test, the researchers programmed the prototype to create a dome and used a spray foam commonly used in buildings and homes. The whole system can be powered electrically or with solar panels.

The 3D printing industry has been growing in recent years. In February, startup Apis Cor announced it built a 400-square-foot house in Russia, using about $10,000 worth of materials and a 3D-printing robot. In 2015, Oak Ridge National Laboratory 3D printed a mobile home, and a 3D-printed backyard castle was built in Minnesota the prior year.

The MIT researchers want to deploy their system in remote regions, such as in the developing world or in disaster relief areas, for example after a major earthquake, to provide shelter quickly. But that could be five to 10 years away, Keating, the paper co-author, told CNNTech.

The long-term vision is for the system to work in places such as Antarctica, the moon and Mars to make buildings out of local materials like ice or moon dust. Keating declined to give a specific timeline, but he said technology like this could be ready in 50 years or sooner.

Witnesses recount 'terrifying' details of fatal UT-Austin stabbing incident

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
University of Texas-Austin student Elissa Garza said she and her friend, Ileanna Guerri, were having lunch, enjoying "a beautiful day" on campus Monday, when a fellow student came into the area and attacked multiple students with a knife, killing one and injuring three others.

"It didn't seem real," Garza said in an interview with ABC News on Monday. "I had never seen so many people's faces in utter terror."

Garza, one of at least 25 students who witnessed the attack, said school officials urged people to go on with their normal schedules until they could gather more information about the situation. She went into her class, which happened to be next to the Gregory gym building, where the stabbing incident occurred, but she said she found it hard to focus on her work.

"I was a little terrified of being in that building, but my teacher was extremely understanding, she let us turn in our assignment and walk out," Garza said. "She knew it was a little uneasy on campus already."

Authorities are still working to figure out the motive behind the attack.

The university said it apprehended the suspect, 21-year-old UT Austin student Kendrex White, who allegedly attacked the students with what appeared to be a large hunting knife and "calmly" walked away, according to police.

White is currently being interrogated by police and has not yet been charged.

One of the victims died at the scene, according to UT Austin police.

Two of the three victims who were seriously injured in the stabbing were released from the hospital on Monday, according to a university statement late Monday. The university didn't provide details on the third surviving victim in the statement.

Guerri, who witnessed the stabbing with Garza, said she's been thinking about the incident a lot since it happened on Monday afternoon. She fears that a similar incident could happen again.

"It was the middle of the day and this happened ... he was a student," Guerri said in an interview with ABC News on Monday. "It's hard for me to not worry about that, to not worry that that's going to happen again."

Other students have expressed similar fears.

"A lot of people have been saying they don't want to go outside or go back to their dorm. They don't want to walk to classes tomorrow," according to University of Texas Austin Freshman Rachel Prichett, who said she was standing in line at a food truck near the gym when she suddenly heard screaming.

She said she was just a few feet away from one of the victims when he was stabbed.

"It is pretty terrifying," Prichett said. "If I had been facing the other away, had my back to that guy, it could have been me that he targeted."

In a letter released late Monday, University of Texas Austin President Gregory Fenves acknowledged that the campus had been gripped by "very understandable" fear in the wake of the attack.

"There is a great deal of fear on campus and in our community," Fenves said. "That fear is very understandable, especially in light of recent vandalism and threats against students."

Fenves did not offer details on vandalism or threats mentioned in the letter, but Prichett told ABC News that she was aware of "a couple" of alleged threats on campus.

"There have actually been a couple of other supposed threats that have happened," Prichett said. "There was a banner up somewhere that said "tuition pays for bombing" or something like that," she added.

The university said classes and events will resume on Tuesday and it plans to hold a "gathering to honor the victims" in the coming days.

"And I know that it will be a very difficult day for everyone on the Forty Acres, so please, be there for one another," Fenves said, using a colloquial term that refers to the university as a whole. "[P]lease keep your thoughts and prayers with the victims and their families during this very difficult time.
