Overview

• Authorities named the shooter as Desmond Holly, 16, a student who opened fire on classmates before shooting himself and later dying at a hospital.
• Two students were wounded and hospitalized, with one reported in critical condition and another stabilized or transferred; one victim was identified by family as 18-year-old Matthew Silverstone.
• Investigators say Holly used a revolver, fired repeatedly, reloaded multiple times and moved between areas inside and outside the school, while responding officers did not fire their weapons.
• The sheriff’s office says evidence points to Holly having been radicalized by an extremist network, a lead being pursued with federal partners including the FBI, NCIS and ATF.
• Search warrants cover Holly’s home, car and locker as digital forensics proceed, and the district set up reunification and support services at Bergen Meadow Elementary after the campus was secured.
