Florida State University shooter Myron May displayed increasingly erratic behavior in the days leading up to Thursday’s incident, even telling a former roommate she would be getting a ‘mystery package.’
The roommate, who asked not to be identified, said she received a Facebook message just one day before the shooting to let her know something was in the mail.
‘I have no idea what it could be,’ she told FoxNews.com.
Also, According to a Las Cruces, New Mexico, police report last month, May was a subject of a harassment complaint after a former girlfriend called to report he came to her home uninvited and claimed police were bugging his house and car. Danielle Nixon told police May recently developed ‘a severe mental disorder.’
‘Myron began to ramble and handed her a piece to a car and asked her to keep it because this was a camera that police had put in his vehicle,’ the report said.
The report also said May recently quit his job and was on medication.
Two students and an employee were wounded in the attack by gunman Myron May, a lawyer convinced that the government was ‘targeting him’, who opened fire at 12.30am on Thursday morning.
The paranoid 31-year-old, who officials said was in a ‘state of crisis’ at the time, was then shot dead by police outside of the Stozier library which was full of students studying for their exams.
Since the incident police have unearthed journals and videos that showed May believed he was being targeted. A former girlfriend also believes that he had developed a severe mental disorder and was taking medication.
Jason Derfuss was walking out of the building when he was shot in the back. However he did not know he had been hit until his roommate emptied his bag at home.
He found bullet holes in two of the books he had checked out just minutes before the rampage.
He wrote on his Facebook: ‘Earlier tonight there was a shooting at FSU, right as I was leaving Strozier. I didn’t know this at the time, but the Shooter targeted me first. The shot I heard behind me I did not feel, nor did it hit me at all.
‘He was about five feet from me, but he hit my books. Books one minute earlier I had checked out of the library, books that should not have stopped the bullet. But they did. I learned this about three hours after it happened, I never thought to check my bag.
