The gunman -- identified by police as Ethan Blair Miller, 20 --
A search warrant was served on the gunman's vehicle and home, Miller said. Investigators found three Molotov cocktails in his car along with a sawed-off shotgun. Police are working with the ATF to learn if the firearms were legal.
In his apartment, authorities found additional ammunition and digital devices that are currently being reviewed. CNN has identified several blog entries appearing to belong to Ethan Miller which were published on the blogging site "Wattpad" detailing a plan and reasons for the shooting.
June 29 and signed with the name Ethan. The writer of the post blamed Covid-19 and quarantine for worsening their mental health. Initially, this person planned a shooting inside a high school on September 8, according to the posts. More than 35 posts were made by this same account on the blogging site. Most of the posts indicated a desire to commit violence.
One post referenced being "partially inspired" by the Columbine High School shooting.
In other posts signed with the name Ethan, several reasons were cited for the writer turning into a "ticking time bomb," which included their family and their love life, which was detailed in a post headlined July 8.

I’m pretty sure sawed off shotguns aren’t legal in most cases, but for confirmation please contact Randy Weaver.
You run with some interesting folks.
Well, you know us conservatives, were all button-up fellows.
“ Many scientists with PhDs were called in to determine if the sawed-off shotgun was legal.”
