The victim in the apparent murder-suicide on UCLA's campus was William S. Klug, a professor of engineering. Klug was one of two men who died in a suspected murder-suicide inside an engineering building at UCLA Wednesday morning, triggering a campus-wide lockdown as hundreds of officers scoured the campus for a possible shooter. Klug was a married father of two, with a son in fourth grade and a younger daughter. He also coached Little League baseball and soccer, friends tell Eyewitness News. After the initial report came in around 10 a.m. of two men dead inside an engineering building, investigators weren't immediately certain if a shooter was on the loose on campus. Hundreds of officers from multiple law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and ATF, flooded the campus in search of a possible gunman or gunmen and ordered students to remain sheltered in place.
