Authorities wrapping up inquiry into deadly school shooting

AZTEC, N.M. (AP) — Authorities say they're wrapping up a months-long investigation into a school shooting that left two students dead and rocked a rural community in northwestern New Mexico. The San Juan County Sheriff's Office said in a statement issued Wednesday that there are theories as to why the gunman opened fire inside Aztec High School, but the only factual conclusion investigators have made is that the shooter had what they called "serious issues." The 21-year-old gunman, William Atchison, killed Francisco "Paco" Fernandez and Casey Jordan Marquez before firing randomly in a hallway and a computer lab, forcing students and teachers to take cover. He then killed himself. The gunman left behind notes that detailed his plans. The shooting has resulted in ongoing discussions about ways to bolster security on campuses around the state.
