I have a weapon here,\" the minister said the youth wrote. \u003cbr/\u003e\"Early tomorrow morning I will go to my former school.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe minister said the chat had occurred the night before the attack, but a police official, Erwin Hetger, later said it was in the early morning Wednesday, about six hours before the 9:30 a.m. (0830 GMT) shooting.\u003cbr/\u003eThe youth ended the chat saying, \"No reports to the police now, don't worry, I'm just baiting you.\"\u003cbr/\u003eA Bavarian man told police about the chat after the school shooting in Winnenden had taken place, the minister said. \u003cbr/\u003eHe told authorities his 17-year-old son only told him about it after seeing the news reports and had not taken the\u003cbr/\u003ethreat seriously, replying to the message: LOL - shortform for \"laughing out loud.\"\u003cbr/\u003eAn investigator said authorities had learned that the suspect was treated for depression in 2008, with five visits to a psychiatrist between April and September at an area clinic. \u003cbr/\u003eHe was supposed to continue the treatment at another clinic, but apparently did not show up, the investigator said.\u003cbr/\u003eChild psychologist Judith Tellerman on Thursday said the shooter's notice of his actions on the internet \"sounds like he's bragging but it could also have been somewhat of a cry for help.\"\u003cbr/\u003eTellerman added that  \"we need to let the young people know, who are on the internet, that when someone does make a threat like this please take it very seriously.\"\u003cbr/\u003eDespite the high death toll, the shooting could have been worse if the principal of the high school had not been able to warn teachers with a prearranged code over the public address system when the suspect burst into\u003cbr/\u003ethe school.\u003cbr/\u003eAfter the suspect entered the school in Winnenden on Wednesday morning and opened fire, the principal put the emergency plan in effect, quickly broadcasting a coded message to teachers: \"Frau Koma is coming,\" students\u003cbr/\u003etold German media.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Then our teacher closed the door and said we should close the windows and sit on the floor,\" a student, identified only as Kim S., told ZDF television.\u003cbr/\u003eIn German the word \"amoklauf\" is used to describe school shootings, and \"koma\" is the reverse of the word \"amok.\" Hetger said the coded alert was worked out by German educators after a deadly school shooting in Erfurt in 2002 as a way to warn teachers.\u003cbr/\u003eState police president said that police in Baden-Wuerttemburg had received special training that involved sending small teams into the building in the event of a school shooting, as happened on Wednesday.\u003cbr/\u003eHe credited this, coupled with the warning from the principal, for preventing further deaths.\u003cbr/\u003eAlthough the gunman shot at the officers as they entered the building, they succeeded in chasing him from the premises.\u003cbr/\u003eAfter he escaped, he hijacked a car and was eventually caught in a police shootout. The rampage ended with 15 victims slain and the assailant taking his own life, authorities said.\u003cbr/\u003eHis victims were primarily female: eight of nine students killed were girls, and all three teachers were women. Three men were killed later by the suspect as he fled.\u003cbr/\u003eThe dark-haired teen, shown wearing glasses in pictures on German television, apparently took the weapon from his father's collection of 15 firearms along with a \"multitude of ammunition,\" police said. His father, a businessman, was a member of the local gun club and kept the weapons locked away except for the pistol, which was kept in the bedroom.\u003cbr/\u003eThe high school was closed Thursday, still cordoned off by red and white police tape as investigators pored through the building. Scores of candles lit by mourners adorned the grounds amid bunches of flowers and notes with messages and questions like \"Why?\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe government ordered all federal buildings to fly their flags at half staff, and schools across the country held moments of silence for the victims.
