A motive for the attack has yet to be confirmed. The FBI and other agencies have joined an ongoing investigation into whether the attack was terrorism-related. Artan was not known to counterrorism authorities before Monday's attack.
According to the AP, a "self-described Islamic State news agency called Artan 'a soldier of the Islamic State,'" although ISIS has previously called attackers its "soldiers" without having claimed to organize them.

In a second press conference on Monday afternoon, OSU president Michael Drake answered a reporter's question about the potential for backlash after the incident.
"We all know when things like this happens that there’s a tendency for people to put people together," Drake said. "What we want to do is unify together, support each other, do our best to support those who were injured in their recovery, and not come to conclusions."
The attack left a number of people with stab wounds and injuries sustained from the vehicle. One person is suffering neurological injuries from the car attack, but is awake and is under observation. A second person suffered skeletal injuries.

"I just wanted to say that we are so grateful our police were on the scene, were able to neutralize the situation, and the injuries weren't severe."

In the second press conference at 4 p.m., Drake said that some of the victims had more work to be done but most were recovering and "in good spirits."
