More than two weeks after the Newtown, Connecticut shooting rampage, Adam Lanza's body has been claimed for burial.

That's according to the New York Times. The paper wasn't able to learn from the state medical examiner who took him. On December 14-th, Lanza shot and killed 26 people, including 20 children, at Sandy Hook Elementary School before committing suicide.

Before that massacre, Lanza killed his mother at her home nearby. Police haven't given a motive for the shootings.
