The father of the suspected Michigan State University gunman expresses shock after the shootings that left at least 3 dead and 5 injured. 'I really don't believe it, but I know it's true,' he tells NBCNews.
Monday night turned “evil and mean” and became a recluse after his mother's death two years ago, his father said Tuesday in an interview.
After her sudden passing, the younger McRae quit his job at a warehouse, where he loaded refrigerators into delivery trucks, and stayed in his room all day playing video games, his father said. "I said, 'Talk to daddy. Let me know if something is on your mind. If you need help, I'll get you help,'" the father said."He said, 'I'm OK, dad, I don't need help."
Authorities said the shooter's motive is unknown. He had no affiliation to the university and was not a student or staff member, according to“We have no idea why he came to campus to do this tonight,” Rozman said. His father said he does not know how his son obtained the firearm or why he felt his son wanted to have one.
Michael McRae said that he did not think his son was a danger to himself or others and that he never felt he needed to alert authorities about his son.
