According to the reports, during the 18 Feb 2018 attack, 17 people were killed and there were 15 casualties. The ex-student of the school, Nikolas Cruz is suspected to be the shooter. Cruz was expelled from school for “disciplinary reasons.”

The Suspect and Witnesses

According to Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.), he then pulled the fire alarm. After hearing the alarm, students tried to run out of their respective classrooms.

According to the student(an eye-witness),

“He went up and down the hallway just banging and shooting into the classrooms. He shot through my door and broke my window.”

Another student, Shieb,

“We ran into a corner and turned off all the lights. We just kept hearing gunshots and screaming.”

Many people instantly reacted to the incident and some expressed their grief via their social media handles. President Donald Trump tweeted,

She stated,

“The Parkland students are recovering from trauma and have only been studying gun policy for a week. Is it really necessary for CNN to pit them against a vicious, dishonest and radicalized NRA lobbyist? This is like inviting tobacco lobbyists to explain to kids who have lost loved ones to lung cancer how we can prevent smoking deaths. Lobbyists don’t deserve a seat at this table.”
