The exact date is not immaterial as this report was obviously made AFTER it was reported initially he had used an assault rifle, that assault rifle rounds were found along with assault style clips inside the school and also AFTER the medical examiners interview.

I could take 1 12 round 9mm pistol, easily have 20-40 mags on me and walk in to any place where there are gun bans so everyone would be unarmed. and EASILY kill every person that I can lay eyes on, very easily well over the amount that was done at the school.. NOT THAT I WOULD.. I am just saying why is it so hard to believe that he didn't use a automatic rifle.. I would actually prefer not to use a full auto rifle because It would be much easier to use a pistol to go shoot up a bunch of kids more then likely no more then 5-10ft away from me.
Also feel free to ban 9mm I can do the same thign with a .22 and it would be cheaper to boot.

Certainly, I was just curious about where this was on the timeline, as I had not heard it yet. To me, it matters if it was a day after the shootings, or a week. I'd like to know if it is consistent with the current reports, or if this will now be the new official OS.

This appears to be the latest development of the OS as I can find. I have not seen nor heard another updated report that is more current than this one and I have looked, that said I can not put an exact date on this report first hand I can only see when it was posted from the source. The timeline within the report itself though lends it to being very current.
The shooter came into the kindergarten to 4th grade school around 9:30 a.m. in Newtown, Conn. with two 9-mm handguns -- a Glock and a Sig Sauer -- and fired off "hundreds of rounds," according to witnesses. There were conflicting reports about whether he had more firearms on him but NBC10 News did learn he had at least one other gun -- a rifle -- in the car.
Lanza drove to Sandy Hook Elementary School and continued his rampage, killing 26 people, authorities said. He was found dead at the school. It appeared that he died from what was believed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The rifle was found in his car.
Some of you people are really daft. It does not take training to shoot something from 10, 20, or even 30ft away. Those who think that are absolutely clueless about firearms.
The only question that needs to be asked is why some of you feel the need to turn this tragedy into a false flag, conspiracy, or whatever it is you are trying to prove.
This was a horrific tragedy carried out by a screwed up 20 something year old. I just hope the families of the victims never see the crap you are pushing. News reporters are not infallible they never have been. I find the efforts of those who are trying to make this a conspiracy disgusting those of you doing this should be ashamed of yourselves.

You clearly don't really know much about guns....no one legally possesses automatic weapons. There was never speculation of an auto wheapon, even from the news....
