Before the attack, the suspect had walked into a room wherethe press conference was to be held "acting crazy," one witness said. He
briefly grabbed the microphone and said "check, check, check" and "can
you hear me" before leaving and walking across the hall into a computer
lab.
When the suspect exited the computer lab, that's when the confrontation with the dean occurred.
The Star also reports that witnesses claimed the man had "demonic tattoos on his hands" and drew symbols on a poster before the attack.

watch idly. The witnesses tackled the suspect and held him down until
police arrived on the scene.
