The apartment building at 1313 Grand Avenue where Ryan Lanza lived has been searched and declared safe.
“They were afraid of another incident like in Colorado, where the guy booby-trapped his apartment,” a law enforcement source told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.
Just before 2 p.m., county and city officers entered the apartment building as a crowd of media members and other onlookers gathered.
Ryan Lanza as taken out and away in a police car, the source told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.
Twenty-seven people, including 18 children, were killed — many of them in a kindergarten class — according to the Hartford Courant.
Lanza wrote on his Facebook page that he is originally from Newtown.
