DEVELOPING / 5:10 p.m.
BLACKSBURG -- Virginia Tech officials confirmed today that NBC News in New York City received a package of photos, videos and writings from gunman Seing-Hu Cho -- a package apparently mailed after the first of two killing sprees on Monday.
"We have been working with the FBI, the ATF, and the Virginia Tech police department since discovering this new evidence existed," said State Police Superintendent Col. W. Steven Flaherty. "This may be a very new critical component of this investigation. We are in the process right now of attempting to analyze and evaluate its worth."
The stunning development comes two days after Cho, a 23-year-old loner from Centreville, went on a rampage, taking the lives of 30 people - and likely two others - before turning a gun on himself.
The new development could give authorities a better idea of what provoked the deadliest shooting spree in United States history.
Larry Hincker, Virginia Tech spokesman, said NBC news will report on it tonight.

BLACKSBURG -- Officials confirmed today that the gunman behind Monday's killing spree at Virginia Tech had previous run-ins with campus police for "annoying" two female students.
Officials also said Seing-Hui Cho, a 23-year-old from Centreville, had been admitted to a mental health facility in 2005.
