Berhow’s motive in the attack remains unclear, sheriff’s department spokesman Edmo Luna said Friday evening, a day after Saugus High students evacuated in the first fatal shooting this academic year on U.S. school grounds. Deputies were on the scene two minutes after a 911 call reported the Saugus High shooting at 7:38 a.m. Thursday, authorities said. They found the shooter, dressed in black, among six students with gunshot wounds in the school’s outdoor quad area. As they continue to investigate, campuses across the William S. Hart Union High School District were closed Friday in a show of respect to victims. Students at Saugus High did everything they were taught to in an active shooter training held just weeks before Thursday’s “senseless violence,” Villanueva told reporters.
