The teenage gunman who killed a student and a teacher at a St. Louis high school left a note in his car saying his feelings of loneliness were “a perfect storm for a mass shooting,” the city’s police commissioner said on Tuesday.
Police found a blue notebook in the car that the killer, Orlando Deshawn Harris, drove on Monday to the Central Visual and Performing Arts High School, where he fatally shot the 61-year-old teacher and 16-year-old female student, while wounding or causing injuries to seven other people.
Harris was killed in an exchange of gunfire with police.
Describing the handwritten note as a “manifesto,” Police Commissioner Michael Sack read a portion of the document to the media at a press conference on Tuesday.
“I don’t have any friends,” Sack quoted the note as saying “I don’t have any family.
