The photos, released to the public on Thursday, depict Mohamad Barakat packing a suitcase with guns and going to a gun range hours before he shot at Fargo police.
In one instance, Mohamad Barakat reported a burglary at his apartment a month before he opened fire on Fargo police officers and fatally shot one. Another detailed concerns he may be suicidal.
Years before a shooting that killed a Fargo police officer, Mohamad Barakat said he purchased guns in an attempt to "fit in," Cass County Sheriff's Office report said.
“We feel it’s a very important piece for members of our department to go out there and honor Jake (Wallin) in this way and support his family," Fargo Police Chief Dave Zibolski said.
