Investigators announced Wednesday, that they had completed their joint investigation.

Brandon Hole, 19, killed himself after shooting eight of his former co-workers shortly after 11 that night.

“The shooter’s attack did not appear to have been motivated by the need to address perceived injustices or to advance an ideology but was an act of suicidal murder. This is a term intended to convey the murders were a function of a primary desire for suicide,” read a news release from police.

After 120 interviews, 20 search warrants and examining over 150 pieces of evidence, police concluded that the shooting was not racially motivated.
