This has been known at least since Charles Whitman packed his trusty Dexedrine while shooting up U Texas in 1966, and all the Columbine kids were heavily medicated, as is likely for other "mentally troubled" mass shooters before and since.
The medications responsible for this used to carry appropriate black-box warnings, but since it was a bad PR move, the FDA permitted them to remove it.
