Police say the man who shot eight students at Michigan State University, killing three, was found with two handguns and a note containing a possible motive for the attack. They described Anthony McRae as a loner whose father said he had no friends.
The man who shot eight students at Michigan State University, killing three, was found with two handguns and a note containing a possible motive for the attack, police said Thursday.
"It appears based on the content of the note that he felt he was slighted in some way by people or businesses," Rozman said at a news conference. "Did a mental health issue amplify that or was it a component of that? We're not sure at this point. We're working our best to try to determine that as best as possible."
Students have described breaking windows and taking other desperate steps to escape Berkey Hall, which will stay closed through the spring term. McRae had a misdemeanour gun conviction in 2019, though it didn't bar him from having the handguns, which Rozman noted were purchased legally but not registered.
