“The speed at which this investigation has moved today has been nothing less than incredible,” Wilson said Saturday. “We owe that to the outpouring of support and tips from the Blacksburg, Christansburg and Montgomery County communities.”
Eisenhauer is a freshman engineering major and has been a member of the Virginia Tech cross country team, the Roanoke paper reported. The university said he’s been suspended.
Police didn’t give a motive or say how Lovell died.
CNN is attempting to find out if Eisenhauer has retained an attorney.
“We still have a great deal to do,” Wilson said.
