On Tuesday, ISIS' news agency took credit for the attack. Artan had posted a series of messages on Facebook decrying the treatment of Muslims and had previously told the student newspaper that he was "scared" to be seen praying on campus. Despite this, Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) said that that Artan's motive may never be discovered.
