Eleven students were hurt in the attack.

OSU said in a statement that the "injuries include stab wounds, injury by motor vehicle and other injuries that are being evaluated" and that "facts are still being verified."

The attacker has been identified as a Somali immigrant named Abdul Razak Ali Artan. He was a student at Ohio State University. Reports indicate he was a devout Muslim who was angry about the way people of his faith were being treated.

According to sources, investigators are now focusing on a Facebook rant they believe was posted by Artan. It reads, "I am sick and tired of seeing my fellow Muslim brothers and sisters being killed and tortured EVERYWHERE ... I can't take it anymore. America! Stop interfering with other countries ... [if] you want us Muslims to stop carrying [out] lone wolf attacks."

OSU Officer Alan Horujko, 28, has been identified as the officer who fatally shot Artan.

"It helped the officer be in the right place at the right time, as he was able to see this whole thing happen and take immediate action," an official said at a press conference Monday afternoon. (Screengrab via CBN News)

Meanwhile, Ohio Gov. John Kasich said in a statement, "My thoughts are with the victims of this attack right now, and I pray for their safety and recovery."

He also praised first responders for their handling of Monday's tragedy.

"I am grateful for the professional, coordinated response from first responders, whose efforts helped effectively contain this incident before further harm could be done," he said. "I have been staying in contact with Ohio first responders since the incident began and have spoken with Ohio State's president, Dr. Michael Drake, to pledge whatever additional help the university needs."
