The home where mass killer Adam Lanza plotted the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School will be demolished, CNN reported Thursday.
The Newtown, Conn., city council voted unanimously on Wednesday to tear down the half-million-dollar colonial house, according to CNN.
While the demolition has not been scheduled, Mary Ann Jacob, chairman for the Newtown Legislative Council, told the news network that it will occur “as soon as is practical.”
The city’s top elected official, Patricia Llodra, told Reuters that she expects the house to come down by the spring.
Lanza shot his sleeping mother at the home before heading to the elementary school, where he killed 26 students and educators in one of the worst school shootings in American history.
