The 17-year-old student charged with killing 10 people when he opened fire in an art class at his Houston-area high school appeared "weirdly nonemotional" on the morning after the rampage, one of his lawyers said on Saturday.
Courtney Marshall, 15, told Reuters that the gunman entered her classroom on Friday and opened fire.
Police say two people were wounded in a shooting outside a high school graduation ceremony in Georgia on Friday night. During the appearance, the teen acknowledged understanding the charges against him, only saying "yes, sir" and "no, sir" when asked questions.
Robert Stone told The Associated Press by phone Saturday that authorities officially notified his family that his nephew, Chris Stone, was among those killed in Friday's attack at Santa Fe High School. Abbott said the two guns used in the attack were owned legally by his father.
Gunfire erupted at the school not long after classes began around 7:30 a.m. local time, officials said.
It was unclear if the people who were shot attended that graduation.
He says explosive devices including a molotov cocktail that had been found in the suspected shooter's home and a vehicle as well as around the school and nearby.
Henry told reporters that the suspect had devices but none were functional.
Investigators found a group of carbon dioxide canisters taped together, and a pressure cooker with an alarm clock and nails inside.
"Sabika's death and that of the other victims is heartbreaking and will be mourned deeply both here in the United States, and in Pakistan", Pompeo said in a statement. We are grateful for the courageous first responders, law enforcement officials and medical personnel.
Authorities say the suspect has provided a statement to police while in custody, telling investigators that he didn't shoot his classmates that he liked "so he could have his story told", the AP reports. But authorities now believe those two were not connected to the crime, the official said.

Santa Fe High School, southeast of Houston, became the scene of the fourth-deadliest mass shooting at a US public school in modern history, joining a long list of campuses where students and faculty have fallen victim to gunfire.
This latest shooting is the 101st mass shooting in the USA carried out so far this year. The retired Houston police officer was shot in the arm and suffered major bleeding, according to hospital officers.
"From what we've gathered thus far he got in front of other students and barricaded the door", said Saunders. Rabon said he followed his teacher, who went to investigate.
Then he heard three more bangs, and panic set in.
"He was bleeding out and his blood pressure was very low, so the immediate issue was to resuscitate him and give him enough blood product to get his blood pressure up and take him straight to the OR", said a surgeon. She and her schoolmates at one point were evacuated "like it's a fire drill".
"We were all standing (outside), but not even five minutes later, we started hearing gunshots", she said.
Shana Fisher turned 16 just 10 days before she died, her aunt Ericha Fisher Farris said in a Facebook tribute to her niece.
"He wore, like, a trench coat nearly every day", student Mateo Twilley told CNN. "I wasn't surprised, I was just scared".
Acevedo said he was "not ashamed to admit I've shed tears of sadness, pain and anger" after the shooting.
Tristen Patterson, a junior at Sante Fe high School, says Pagourtzis didn't show signs of being bullied, but that he rarely talked about himself. "Too many years. Too many decades now". They said they are cooperating with authorities.
In an appeal posted on his personal Facebook page, Mr Acevedo wrote: "Today I spent the day dealing with another mass shooting of children and a responding police officer who is clinging to life".
