Oregon college gunman Harper-Mercer was army dropout who studied mass shootings and hoarded weapons
More details emerge about the gunman who killed at least nine people at a college in Roseburg

The 26-year-old gunman who opened fire on fellow students in his community college English class, killing nine people, was an army boot camp dropout who studied mass shooters before becoming one himself.
Officials on Friday also released the names of the dead, who ranged in age from 18 to 67 and included several freshmen and a teacher. They were sons and daughters, spouses and parents.
One of the students was active in the Future Farmers of America and loved to play soccer. Another was on only his fourth day of college. One was a 59-year-old student whose daughter was enrolled in the same school but not injured the shooting. Grieving families began sharing details of their loved ones.

“We have been trying to figure out how to tell everyone how amazing Lucas was, but that would take 18 years,” the family of Lucas Eibel, 18, said. Eibel, who was studying chemistry, volunteered at a wildlife centre and animal shelter.
Quinn Glen Cooper’s family said their son had just started college and loved dancing and voice acting.
