At this point, I would consider this as an initial report. There is still much to learn about this man.
Update:
Blazing Cat Fur, a Canadian blog, is posting several updates on this man including an alleged picture of him posted by an ISIS Twitter account.

According to this report from Reuters in Hot Air, Zehaf-Bibeau was known as a threat.

Probably just another routine instance of workplace violence, or something similar.
