　　Search warrants released today in the Newtown school shooting describe an arsenal 1 of weapons found in the home and car of shooter, Adam Lanza. NPR's Margot Adler reports the rampage during which Lanza killed 20 children, six adults, then himself lasted only five minutes.
 
　　Prosecutors 2 have made few details available, although they face pressure when the media got hold some of the information. Parts of the released search warrants are redacted. State's Attorney Steven Sedensky said Lanza killed all 26 victims with a Bushmaster rifle and took his own life with a Glock 10-millimeter handgun. He had another loaded handgun and three 30-bullet magazines for the Bushmaster. A hundred and fifty-four spent casings were recovered at the scene. Investigators 3 found knives, samurai swords, a military-style uniform in Lanza's bedroom, a smashed computer hard drive, a gun safe with numerous boxes of bullets, binoculars 4, paper targets in the clipping of an Illinois school shooting. The investigation 5 is continuing at least until June. Margot Adler, NPR News.
