Rochester Hills splash pad shooting: What we know about victims, suspect

(No motive. Loner. Found 'dead by his own hand'. Found the dreaded 'assault rifle' on his kitchen table like a plot-point prop. Conveniently left behind a hand-gun registered to his home. Why not his driver's license or passport? Just happened to have another one to 'shoot himself' with.)

(Michigan is trying to pass legislation banning 'ghost guns' which are weapons either 3-d printed or made in such a way as to not have a registration number. What a coincidence. They 'found' the patsy suspect because the 9m Glock was registered. They also, supposedly, prevented a second mass shooting... all because the gun he used was NOT a 'ghost gun'.  Go figure.)

Police described the suspect, Michael William Nash, as a 42-year-old male who lived with his mother. Bouchard said the man had no criminal history, but was believed to have had mental health challenges.

Nash died by suicide after being "contained" at a Shelby Township home for several hours following the attack, Bouchard said. Bouchard said after attempts to contact the suspect failed, drones were deployed to examine the home, where Nash was found dead.

Inside the home on the kitchen table was what looked like a semi-automatic rifle, Bouchard said. He suggested Nash may have had plans for a "second chapter."

"If he had planned to do anything else, and it wouldn't surprise me, because having that on the kitchen table is not an everyday activity," Bouchard said Saturday.

Bouchard described the shooting as "very random" and "bizarre." Nash has no known connection to the victims, he said. Detectives are still working to determine a motive.
