LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — A Purdue University student has been charged with murder in the stabbing death of his roommate, whose body was found by officers sitting in a chair in their dorm room.
Ji Min Sha, a 22-year-old cybersecurity major from South Korea, was charged Thursday.
The Journal & Courier of Lafayette reports that prosecutors allege Sha stabbed Varun Manish Chheda, a 20-year old data science major from Indianapolis.
Sha called police early Oct. 5 and told them his roommate was dead.
Officers who arrested Sha found him wearing clothes with blood on them, and a knife was found on the dorm room floor.
Prosecutors have not disclosed a motive.
