BEMIDJI, Minn. - A troubling profile of the teenager who shot dead nine people emerged on Tuesday ? one of a Native American who described himself as a "NativeNazi" and who other students said was regularly picked on for his odd behavior.
The teenager, identified as 17-year-old Jeff Weise, stormed into Red Lake High School on Monday afternoon, shooting dead a guard, a teacher and five students before apparently killing himself. At least 14 other students and teachers were wounded in the nation?s worst school shooting since the Columbine massacre in 1999 that killed 13 people.
Before the school shootings, Weise shot dead his grandfather and his grandfather's girlfriend at the home he shared with them.
