Hartford, Conn. -  

Connecticut Medical Examiner Wayne H. Carver II tells the Hartford Courant newspaper that the remains of Adam Lanza were claimed several days ago by someone who wanted to remain anonymous.
 
A spokeswoman at Carver's office told The Associated Press she could not release details.
 
The 20-year-old Lanza killed 20 children and six adults at a Connecticut school on Dec. 14. He also killed his mother before going on the rampage and then killed himself.
 
Police have not offered a motive for the killings. 
 
The attack prompted President Barack Obama to push for "real action, right now" on gun violence.
