The news agency said Highland Hospital announced that it had released the last of the patients late Monday. Citing a spokesman, the news agency said a total of five shooting victims were sent to the hospital but two of them later died.

CNN reported that city police claim the alleged shooter “does not appear to be remorseful at all.”

The police believe Goh was disgruntled after being expelled from the university earlier this year and felt ostracized and “picked on,” the news broadcaster said.

“This was a calculated, cold-blooded execution in the classroom,” Police Chief Howard Jordan was quoted as saying. The suspect “just felt a certain urge to inflict pain on them.”
