NEWTOWN, Conn. — Adam Lanza, the 20-year old who killed 26 students and staff at Newtown's Sandy Hook Elementary School in December, spent years making extensive plans for his attack, the New York Daily News is reporting Monday. 

Newtown police sealed off a section of Yogananda Street, where Adam Lanza and his mother Nancy lived, after the Dec. 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown.
