What happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School?

On December 14, 2012, Adam Lanza forcefully entered Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. He killed twenty-six people—twenty children and six adult staff members before turning the gun on himself. Lanza had killed his mother earlier that day before leaving to carry out this massacre.

No one knows precisely why Adam Lanza carried out these heinous acts. Numerous investigation reports suggest various assertions ranging from mental illness to socialization problems.

Why did he target an elementary school filled with innocent children?

Adam Lanza’s motivations are not entirely clear; however early investigations indicate that he may have deeply harbored grudges against society fueled with delusions showing increased desperation for recognition.

Did anyone from the school fight back or attempt to halt him?

Unlike other mass shootings where bravery and heroism shown save lives by those caught up in these situations sadly no such sightings were recorded at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
