The Ohio State attacker, Abdul Artan, intentionally drove his car into pedestrians before exiting his vehicle with a butcher knife and slashing several more people. He was shot dead by police just moments after his attack began, though the school remained in lockdown for an hour and a half after his attack.
ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack on it news agency, AMAQ.
