The 18-year-old California university freshman who went on rampage with a hunting knife this week had a disturbing master plan.
He was going to capture hostages, ambush and brutually murder cops, and then use their weapons to start shooting — all because he was barred from a study group, authorities said.
Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke said a two-page “manifesto” detailing Faisal Mohammad’s motive and plans to terrorize and kill several classmates at the University of California, Merced was found on his body Thursday during his autopsy.
Campus police shot and killed Mohammad after the teen stabbed two students, a university employee and a construction contractor shortly after 8 a.m. PST Wednesday on the rural campus in the farm-rich San Joaquin Valley, 120 miles south of Sacramento. The four victims are all expected to survive.
Mohammad’s plan for revenge discussed his anger with being kicked out of the study group, the sheriff said.
Warnke said Mohammad’s plan was written in English and referenced the Muslim god Allah several times, where he detailed the plot to use plastic ties to bind the hands of his classmates to their desks in his Wednesday morning class. He was then going call police with a fake distress call and ambush responding officers with a hunting knife and steal their guns. He planned to use the guns to shoot a list of students he named, including those in his study group.
The sheriff said Mohammad was born in the United States. He said investigators didn’t find any evidence of mental illness.
Following his rampage, an ISIS-affilated Twitter account praised the knife attack.
Mohammad began his rampage by attacking a fellow student with a knife in a required general education course Wednesday morning. Byron Price, 31, a construction worker doing remodeling next door, ran into the classroom and is credited with preventing Mohammad from killing his initial stabbing victim.
Price said he thought he was breaking up a fistfight when Mohammad charged at him with the knife, stabbing him in the side.
“His eyes, I could see fear in his eyes,” Price told the Merced Sun Star. He was smiling.”
Mohammad fled the room and stabbed two others— one in a stairway, the other on bench outside— before police shot him on a nearby pedestrian bridge.
Police found zip-tie handcuffs, duct tape and a hammer in a backpack near his body. It also contained two plastic baggies of petroleum jelly, which Warnke called a “poor’s man” explosive if ignited.
“We had zero to indicate he was on anyone’s radar,” Warnke said.
Investigators also found a list of items Mohammad planned to pack in his backpack before the attacks.
“His intention was to do more damage,” UC-Merced spokeswoman Lorena Anderson said.
A high school buddy in Santa Clara, California expressed shock that Mohammad stabbed four people.
“He was quiet, but he was really friendly,” Ish Patel said. “He was intelligent, too — he performed well academically.”
Patel said Mohammad enjoyed basketball, going to the mosque to pray and playing video games with his friends. He lost contact with Mohammad after they graduated from high school in June.
But Mohammad’s suitemate at college paints a portrait of an anti-social loner. Andrew Velasquez told KSFN-TV in Fresno that Mohammad kept to himself.
“(Mohammad) didn’t talk much. And I never saw him walk with anybody. Walking to class, I never saw him walk with anybody,” Velasquez said.
One student remained hospitalized Thursday, and a staff member who suffered a collapsed lung was recovering after surgery, the school said. Price and a second student were treated and released.
Classes the university’s 6,700 students were scheduled to resume Friday.

Fierce Look says
Why am I not surprised? The State-run, fifth column media – when are the sheeple going to start referring to them as what they are – kept his identity hidden until after all the hoopla dies down; where as, the White shooter’s picture was immediately shown for the sheeple to see! The public is being played as a fine fiddle. REVOLUTION will be the SOLUTION! We are no longer a free nation as we no longer have a free press – you can’t have one without the other! Armr==============================?!
Ludlow Porch says
You got that all RIGHT!
Anne says
You and ‘Fierce…’ are so wrong. Perhaps u would have rather the ‘perp’ killed a few more. Are u so prejudiced and willing to cause more trouble that u make such statements.
OR maybe he should have been let loose so he could find u both!!!!
Hudson Steele says
When they released NOTHING about him the first day, and he had used knives, I KNEW THIS WAS THE CASE. When are they going to realize that islam is a ‘mental illness’. Not the kind to get you excused from your actions, but the kind that CAUSES your destructive actions. Protecting the enemy.
Thomas Whittingham says
More workplace violence
Patrick Murphy says
Workplace violence? More like ideological violence. We need to take the battle to people who act as though this is just the way things are..You must be a bottle fed liberal.

Francis Manchack says
We have to get as mean as junk yard dogs Slaughter all of them. But we are as gentlemanly as can be while, especially our policemen, who are being hunted down like “wild animals.” We are being blamed for defending ourselves. When will all youngsters be taught t0 be nice to the cops.They will not be nice to you if you try to take their weapons. Learn to show some respect fo them. You may be surprised. They are good human beings,
just like you.
Neal Boy says
We can stop this problem with Concealed Carry. When seconds count the Cops are often at the Doughnut Shop.
rick manning says
that’s a b.s. comment disrespecting cops!!!!!!! Imagine yourself as a police officer who,EVERYDAY< puts his or her life on the line to maintain order. Imagine yourself, if you can, walking up to a traffic stop not knowing if any of the occupants have a gun waiting to kill you. This is a possibility every time they do a traffic stop. They never know!!!!! It would be like being in a war zone every day. Could you do it?????? I seriously doubt it. It takes true courage and dedication to wake up and not know if this could be the last day of your life and go and do the job anyway, especially for unappreciative fools like you. You have to be able to imagine you are the police officer and you will understand what I am saying. Thank God we have people who are willing to sacrifice their lives and sanity every day for us. I by the way am not a police officer but I can imagine how I would feel. I would not have their courage, would YOU.
michael Scholl says
Well put. Have grandson’s, nephew, cousins, and friend in law enforcement.. God Bless them..
Dan says
I am a retired L.E.O. chief and I appreciate your comment. There are very few people that have a realistic understanding of what a good LEO goes through on a day to day basis. As far as the stabbing is concerned I am sure you won’t hear the liberal media saying we should have “knife” control and register everyone that owns a knife.
Siorc says
Rick Manning – Well said, you’re absolutely correct.
Lou Jarocki says
I don’t think his comment was meant as an insult to the police. It was meant as a statement of fact. The cops can’t be everywhere . By outlawing concealed carry on campus you are in effect creating a low risk, target rich environment. There are attacks on campus because they are assured that no one will likely be able to fight back. It makes no difference if they are attacking with a gun, knife, axe, machete or a bat. Bad guys will find a weapon to use and no amount of gun control can help, it can only guarantee a larger number of victums.
Anne says

JANICE JAMES says
Round up the ones who believe in ALAH, spout or “Pray?” at any mosque,, also get all these mosques out of America, off American soil,,, they can go “Pray” in their one country, not ours,, he and the clock kid, were influienced by terrorists,and many more are coming out of the MOSQUES to do terror on Americans,,, send the ALL back home.
Reminds me of a car load of them , all dressed in black , who I said “Good morning” right before my shift started at a Latino elementary school, where I was a crossing guard,,, well the one said in COMPLETE DISGUST, “DON’T SAY GOOD MORNING, SAY SHALOM, GIVING ME AN EVIL LOOK FROM THEM ALL,,,,,, they can go back to their own root country and say it, I say in America I can say “Good Morning” my free choice!!! Sharhia law, Arabic laws, Muslim religion should be out of our country period!!!
rocquedog says
And Obama keeps bringing these radicals over by the tens of thousands.
Ernest Phillips says
Hay!! Posting more gun laws will fix this. It doesn’t matter what was used for a weapon, a gun, knife or an airplane. Every body except our law makers, knows this is a brain probable and should be dealt with starting in kinder garden through high school.
Corsica says
Intelligent or not, American-born or not, this is what muzzles do. How dare the infidels deny a superior person like a muslim anything? Heck they kill each other if they look cross-eyed at each other so what chance does a non-muzzie have? One good thing is that the rabid pos was killed.
felps1 says
We see time and again this barbaric culture and the acts of violence and yet treat them as equals due to PC. This has to stop and they need to be Profiled and held accountable as an entire family, they are a threat to civilized society. They are born innocent human beings and taught to be who they become. maybe if we held the families accountable that could be the answer.Deport the entire family in cases like this then maybe they would hold each other accountable. This problem has to be handled just as any other threat to society
SnailPace says
felps 1-You are onto something. I don’t think we can screen them before immigrate to USA.
But lease we can do is deport all family/relatives immediately without liberal court/judges interfere.
Paul says
felps 1,
You are right. However the parents got to this country in the first place is questionable. (legal or illegal). Only the Gov. knows. The children are citizens when born here, fall away from the old customs probably because of their new born freedom. Play too many video games, get on the internet influenced by terrorist organizations But if we say anything it’s Political Incorrectness. Families need to be accountable, or deportation could be the answer.
Lenorse says
Excellent idea. Deport all muslim families that aren`t citizens. Then maybe they will police each other or stay out.
Jeannette says
I don’t mean to be insensitive, but I am happy He Died. May Satan Welcome Him with Opened Arms;(
Ludlow Porch says
You GO, Girl!
Linda J. Morris says
Truth be known, I am not happy that he died, but it was probably the easiest way to ‘do’ the situation. If he only could have seen a higher and more noble reason to exist and pour out his energies into uplifting his people, and the embracing a higher and more noble worldview rather than destroying and hating so much.
Lee says
He did what his State run “Religion” teaches.
Jim Tucker says
Linda, why not, if one of those people were your family I bet you would think different. I am glad the little goat humper is gone. The more that are gone the less problems we will have.You better start understanding that these people do not like you.
supercoup says
If you feel sorry for him and his family, why don’t you go join them. You really think that they have noble reasons? Hey, I’ve got a bridge for sale.
Porkorama says
Ditto
Mental illness/diobolical evil is his faith in a devil to do harm to others.
No other real religions migrate to other nations to kill people who dont follow his disconnected beliefs.
Cults kill!
Richard Cunningham says
Jeanette, I think you’re right but somehow I get the feeling he thought he was going to go to Allah land or wherever that trash ends up with all those four or five hundred pound virgins. Hell seems to be more appropriate.
Tommy Kelly says
“…..four or five hundred pound virgins”??? YIKES!!! I hope they’re OK with the missionary position.
Jim Tucker says
Richard, I agree with you. at 18 would he still get the same amount of 72 as the other goat humpers and camel jumpers get.? and would they be a lot older than him.? or would he be shit out of luck.
Chris Lee says
I thought he was to get 17 virgins?
Jim Tucker says
Chris, I understand it 2 be 72, but this little prick may not get his full share because of his age. Allah might have 2 give him a few goats that has already been had a few times by his cousins or a camel or 2.
sue wo says
Better still,get rid of ALL ignorant religions that teach that THEIR religion is the ‘true’ one.No one needs any religion to CHOOSE to be a good person.
DockyWocky says
Makes you wonder how many others are out there with the same plan, but still lacking the cajones to go to it.
Taqiyah prevents true assessments of intentions, so are we just going to wait until Allah whispers in their ears to go kill Yankee infidel dogs?
Chuck King says
Don’t be too harsh on this muzzie. He is just another peaceful muzzie that was misunderstood. After all, Bathhouse Bunghole Barry always touts how peaceful Islam is and this incident is not terror. It is another case of “work place violence”
undoubtedly instigated by kafirs.
Anne says
I am like many, am sad, angry & confused! Who was the nitwit who started the big lie that Islam is bad & that [Alla] orders the brethren to kill? Do not be so wrong, [so quick] to call It a Bad religion. It is the deranged, self serving people who know only violence, who gave it that bad rep!
God bless the honorable members of their religion – they suffer sorely.
FYI: I am not a follower.
Jay Bell says
How many asps will be hidden among the M.E. refugees that we are welcoming to our bosoms? Our politicians have been very foolish for assuming that all who come to our shores have friendly motives. The European politicians are more foolish still. They forget that Islam has been at war with each other and the rest of the world from the beginning. They, of course, insist that it is the rest of the world which is at fault instead of their own depraved religion. They insist that Allah has given them the right to put all non-Muslims under their heel. They are anti-Christ.
Bruce S says
I for one am Glad that another Muzzie is out of circulation. We now see what kind of people they really are if they don’t get what they want. Hmmmm… seems to me like they’re alot like Dems and Liberals. So the sooner we get rid of those chicken shit cowards the better off the rest of us will be.
Bren says
Bruce,
Do not forget the 99% Republican special interest GOPs, who wish to dazzle Big Business by allowing them to pay the illegal or legal immigrants for less than minimal wages. Not to mention, leave the burden to the middle class to pay for their housing, food etc. The extremes are the tie that binds-greedy rich (that do not feel it to be necessary to fulfill their end on taxes), needy poor (welfare) and immigrants (immigrants or dreamers that come to this country with their hands open).
Sylvie says
“…referenced the MUSLIM GOD ALLAH..” Thank you whoever wrote this. All need to know this and use this language. Allah is NOT “a different name for God,” Allah is a different god !!!!!
Ivry says
Where is, and what does his family say about this incident. These people are not flying under radar. It is every bodies responsibility to expose these deviate personalities.
V. Uil says
Seems to me the easiest way of dealing with the problem is simply to deport everyone who has the word mohammed in their name.
That will get rid of 90% of these killers
David says
I say that until Californians stop electing the stupid people who run the state they deserve every thing they get. You vote for it you live with it. I truly hope every Californian who voted democrat or liberal agenda gets to be a victim of the criminals they are protecting.
Jim Tucker says
David, I am from TN. but I live near SF. From what I see going on here I will agree with you.Between the Libs. AND THE GAYS we don,t have the people 2 change things, these people act like they are on drugs all the time and most are.
Tim says
Perhaps authorities should be investigating the Muslim ideology family he lived with, and find out what else may be going on within the home of his parents. Fruit like that doesn’t fall far from the tree. Notice how NO Muslims will ever turn in one of their own? As far as I’m concerned there is no such thing as a ‘good’ Muslim.
fred says
Faisal isn’t so bad. Now.
Jay Bell says
AND, believe it—the LAST thing we want to do is disarm the population the way that the Dems and liberals want to do. When the radical Muslims have sufficient numbers, they believe that they will rise up and conquer Europe. When it is time to do so, it is guaranteed that they will have the weapons they need to do so. The European populace will be sitting ducks because they have long since been disarmed. The Dems and liberals who are sold out to the internationalist / globalist agenda (read anti-Christ agenda) apparently have the same plan for this country.
Justin W says
Reading your account of his plan reminded me of Wiley Coyote’s hair-brained schemes to catch the Road Runner on Saturday morning cartoons. I don’t know that the guy was insane but he was delusional if he thought such a plan would work.
College is not like high school. Some people have a hard time making the adjustment. It sounds like this guy would fit into that category. Maybe police should talk to members of the study group. They can probably shed light on why he was ousted from the group.
Chuck says
This is interesting. You notice that his high school friends said he was quiet, but a good guy. All of a sudden, when he gets into college, he is described by a classmate as sullen and withdrawn and he goes totally psychotic. Something happened to this PoS after high school or just when he entered college. The job of the police is to find out the what and the who and I believe we will know a great deal more about how this vulnerable creep became a violent and very stupid criminal.
Jay Bell says
Even though the authorities said that they found no evidence of “mental illness” that does not mean that he was free of psychoactive drugs. With estimates that 40 million Americans are on antidepressants (and they would overwhelmingly be SSRIs) it is no longer a sign of “mental illness”. But the drug companies have always known that SSRIs (since they came into widespread use at the end of the 1980s) have produced “psychotic breaks” in about 5% of those who take them. In young males that often results in violence. Very few of the shooters and violent attackers have had no history of SSRI use. SSRI stands for “Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor” with the idea that a deficiency of serotonin is responsible for “depression”–which has never been proved. In fact, the latest research has demonstrated that SSRIs are no more effective at combating depression than are placebos. Drug companies however make a LOT of money off of them. Doctors have been complicit in the drugging of America with these dangerous substances as they frequently pass them out like candy. We should make it illegal to give them to young men–there are other, safer, anti-depressants–and they should not be given to young people who are simply struggling with adjustment problems as many “who have no evidence of mental illness” are. We will continue to have these incidents until the underlying problem of drug-induced psychosis is ended. The mainstream media have their noses so far into Big Pharma’s behind that there is no hope that the truth about these incidents will ever come out that way. But I would encourage all of you to share the truth with others in the hope that these tragedies would stop.
Patty Nardi says
It couldn’t be because of his Muslim religion. Why that would be preposterous!

Not to mention, with a knife! We better get knife control going now.
Sharon Glover says
Well written. We are like minded in this.
Rick says
Im retired now and have plenty time to read and research. I’ve been telling my close friends for years now that we will be fighting these assholes within 10 years on our own soil. Unfortunately not one at a time. The left seems to think Muslims are our friends. Bull shit. Wait and see if the future will prove I’m right
carol ferrara says
I totally agree with you. Just wait until the refuges start flooding our borders. There are many here already. Just wait and see. BUILD THAT WALL. Look what is happening in Europe.
Anita says
Good let all of these things happen in California. They all need to take place in New York and any state that has their sanctuary cities. I say California needs to keep having things like this happen. Where is odumbo on this one? Oh, yeah that’s right this is only class room violence. No carry in California right, so idiots this is the results. Easy targets when you have nothing to protect yourselves with.
John says
Why is there not some outrage about banning knives or do liberals consider death by knife is better than by gun. Perhaps we will also hear from this guy’s father that it was the knife’s fault that he stabbed people just as the father said it to be the gun’s fault that his son killed people at school by gunshot.
Terry E Stephens says
John, I was thinking the exact same thing. Let’s call for a nationwide ban and confiscation of all knives!!!! That only makes sense if you believe that banning and confiscating guns will help stop crime and killing sprees by insane and radical Islamic maniacs.
Bob Overn says
When are we going to realize that Muslims represent a political agenda. It is not a religion that is protected by our constitution.
We are only witnessing the tip of the ice-burg when we see isolated examples like that above. The Muslims are very open about their goal of destruction. This should not surprise anyone. It is a world-wide conspiracy. The media is not reporting everything that is going on. If they did, we the people might be awakened to action.
Jim Belland says
It seems that these violent attacks are always somehow related to a Mosque . Did this person attend a new one after moving ? there is where any investigation should go.
[email protected] says
In spite of our justified outrage, we could ask ourselves a few questions: How does a person degenerate from being peaceful and friendly (albeit solitary) from being hate-filled and soulless? Who was he is contact with in the months leading up to this? Why was he kicked out the study group? Could we have been forewarned by recognizing disturbing behavior patterns prior to this point in time? \what drug(s), prescription or otherwise, could he have taken?
kpm nair says
From his name itself, he looks like someone having his origins ( at least one generation) in some US bashing countries. such as Afghanistan, Pakistan etc. In these places the US has been pouring millions of dollars to fight so-called terrorism. This is yet another proof of a lack of a wise US policy in these areas.
Jc says
He’ll probably get a congressional medal of honor from the current administration.
Cathy says
This is just the beginning.
KimothyAnn says
I noticed a couple of things:
1. His high school friend’s last name is Patel. That name is common in India and Pakistan. Many people who come from these countries are of the Muslim religion. In the Quo’ran, Muslims are expected to ‘lie to infidels, but never lie to a fellow Muslim’. Following that line of thinking, would mean that PERHAPS fellow friend Patel was lying to the reporter in saying that the stabber (Faisal Mohammad) was friendly and normal in character, back when he knew him.
2. Notice his current roommate has a typical Hispanic (Velasquez) based name. Unlikely to be Muslim. His perception of “FM” is that he was anti-social – 180 degrees different than what Patel claimed.
I agree that there is extreme bias in the main street media, no doubt funded and encouraged by someone or something that wants these loose cannons to operate with minimal damage to the Quo’ran and it’s evil propaganda.
Bob Overn says
Come on, Guys, we’re dealing with the Muslim community with an agenda, not some irrational isolated wacko who had a problem with a student study group. We’re not dealing with rational, peaceful, friendly, fellow citizens who happen to be misguided.
SandyB says
Right! And when will Americans wake up and realize this. The so-called ‘lone wolf’ attacks are just another tactic used by Muslim jihadis to accomplish their goal of a Caliphate- one world dictotorial tyranny.
Robert says
in high school he was good, in college he went wacko. just look at the college professors that californica has,communist marxist and generally an allround dipsxxt.with NO RESPECT for the constitution/ god/home/family/flag or anything other than the commie manefesto. we can only hope that the mussies kill enough of the idiots in california and the rest of the LEFT COAST, that the common sense returns and takes over..with any luck they will get pelousy and reid along with the idiots
Wilbert Jennings jr says
Allah is not real and muslims know this, mohammed forced them to choose allah from 600 made up gods and make him their prophet over 300 years after Christ. They are not a religion they are a political agenda of power no different then what hitler had in mine when he took over Germany. American leadership as we stand is in the control of a muslim that pretended to be a Christian while attending supposedly a Christian church that taught hate of the white man. Muslim power uses fear and death to force a faith while Christianity is a choice and death of GOD was the payment in advance for our past transgressions. Muslims have to kill to earn over a dozen virgins in the after life and the women are nothing and can be raped and tortured, Christians are guaranteed an eternity in paradise if we choose of our own free will. The Bible ,written by Jews including the NEW TESTAMENT in the last book of the NEW TESTAMENT for tells of good being bad and bad being good and even speaks of how the Whore of Babylon( America) will be destroyed. It appears that our leaders are afraid to support what was good for America for over 200 years and bend over for Obama and his muslim brotherhood that has destroyed in less then 7 years what 200 plus years stood for. Bring it on we as Christians know there will be a harvest and those that have created all this crap will get theirs in Hell. The Bible has been s[pot on and there is no reason why Revelation want be as well. There is still time for you to turn from your muslim lies and accept the truth by acknowledging The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost.
Mark says
This guy had problems. I feel it had to do with his EVIL CULT. Their beliefs are strange and very EVIL. Not saying there are people out there that have the same deranged ideas about Killing People. But it’s strange that our government does not have a closer surveillance on all Muslims. Especially those in Michigan and California.
Jay Bell says
Mark, you said, “But it’s strange that our government does not have a closer surveillance on all Muslims. Especially those in Michigan and California.” And New Jersey (there are a huge number of radical Wahabist mosques there) and Florida, etc. etc. The problem is that many of the Muslims who are going to Europe and coming here ARE radicals. That’s why other Muslim countries refuse to take them in, when they flee “persecution” in their homelands. They undoubtedly think we are fools for taking them in.
Manchurian Candidate says
Keep Calm and Comply!
Guess who holds world record of mass murderers; http://murderpedia.org/index-by-country.htm
Check NOT only USA, but also Canada, UK, South Africa, NZ, Australia, France, Spain, Germany and check the rest of the world.
Case closed, you can go home!! Wait, wait which home?
Glen Bennett says
About time all woke up to the fact that Islam is not a religion, it is a barbaric agenda to kill all who do not agree with them.. Islam should be banned everywhere.Start by getting rid of O’slama in the USA and J’ustina in Canada.
Maxine says
.
“[A]ll because he was barred from a study group”??? Yeah! Right!
.
After all it was all just a mere coincidence that during the terrorist attacks, moslem Mohammed “referenced the Muslim god Allah several times”; or that one of the things listed that he ‘enjoyed’ (among several other more benign things) was “going to the mosque to pray”!
.
It’s no surprise that the obvious truth about the real motivation for this terrorist moslem was so carefully glossed over and minimize … since it was the leftwing propagandistic Associated Press that ‘contributed to’ this article!

Paul Coolidge says
Reckon this is why Queen Adolf Odumbass, and our libtard, corrupt government wants more of these murdering, lying, goat lovers into this country?? None of them, that is zero, are our friends or are here to be our friends!!

We (as a nation) are giving these individuals too much press. This is what they want. The study didn’t drive him to it, he was already radicalized. Why give them more than 2 lines??
Margaret Lauren says
Roommate’s lucky he wasn’t skewered too. Interesting there’s been nothing about this rotten weirdo’s mommy & daddy–I’m sure dinnertime conversation @ the Mohammad residence would have been hair-raising by mainstream American standards. And how many more of them are out there, waiting to be “weaponized” by propaganda? God protect us!
