NEW HAVEN, Conn. — People close to the investigation tell The Associated Press that the gunman in the Connecticut school massacre showed interest in other mass killings.

Twenty-year-old Adam Lanza killed his mother at their home before killing 20 first-graders and six staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown on Dec. 14. He killed himself as police arrived.
