I stated that it looked like a mental health issue and so the key question is why was he known to police. It has now emerged that he has had known mental health issues since the age of 17 and is itinerant. That's why he was known to police.
Horrible news. Authorities are saying he was known to the police, there's no terrorism involved and he didnt target anyone specifically, random attacks. I guess the key question is why was he known to the police? The incident strikes me as the actions of a mentally disturbed, schizophrenic...
