Authorities say the man who shot three Fargo, North Dakota, police officers and a civilian, killing one of the officers before an officer killed him, searched the internet for terms including “explosive ammo” and “kill fast,” as well as for what crowded area events might be happening. State Attorney General Drew Wrigley said at a news conference Friday that Mohamad Barakat also used a “binary trigger” that allowed him to fire rapidly during the July 14 attack. Wrigley says Barakat was apparently driven by hatred and wanting to kill, and didn’t seem to be particular about which group or individual he might target.
