A judge in Sauk County set bail at $750,000 cash for the teen accused of fatally shooting his high school principal.

Prosecutors told the judge in court this afternoon, Eric Hainstock may have been looking for other people to attack.

District Attorney Pat Barrett says there were other "persons of interest" for Hainstock when he went to the Weston High School Firday and killed Principal John Klang.

Judge Patrick Taggart set a pre-trial conference for October 13.

Hainstock appeared in court with his attorneys by video from jail.

Funeral arrangements have been announced for his victim, John Klang.

Visitation is scheduled from 4-8 p.m. Tuesday at Farber Funeral Home, 2000 Viking Dr., Reedsburg.

A funeral Mass will be at 11 a.m. Wednesday at the Weston High School gymnasium. Burial will follow in St. Anthony's Catholic Cemetery in Germantown.

In lieu of flowers, memorials of remembrance may be made to the John Klang Memorial Scholarship Fund.

The family said news media would not be allowed to attend the visitation and funeral.
