PARKLAND, Fla. - Police on Thursday vowed to make sure that "justice is served" after a gunman wielding an assault-style rifle killed 17 people at a high school here, even as they sought to piece together what could have motivated one of the country's deadliest school shootings. A day after the shooting rampage, authorities had not publicly announced a motivation for the carnage, but they were digging into elements of the suspected gunman's troubled past, including a pattern of disciplinary issues and unnerving behavior. Also on Thursday, FBI investigators were pursuing information suggesting that Nikolas Cruz, the 19-year-old suspect charged with the shooting, might have been associated with a Florida-based white supremacist group.
