At just 19 years old, Cruz was arrested after confessing to “one of the nation’s deadliest school shootings”, where 17 people were killed and 14 others were wounded. Cruz got to the school at 2:19 PM by taking an uber. “Within barely two minutes of being dropped off, Cruz started firing into four classrooms in Building 12, returning to two of them to shoot again”. He then made his way to the second and third floor of the school where more of his victims. While police were out searching for the suspect of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, the suspect, Nikolas Jacob Cruz, had taken an uber to Walmart and McDonalds just an hour after fleeing the scene. “It took 40 more minutes for Coconut Creek police to spot and detain Cruz in the nearby community of Coral Springs at about 3:40 p.m.”.
After being arrested, during interrogation, “Cruz states that he was the gunman who entered the school campus armed with an AR-15 and began shooting students that he saw in the hallways and on the school grounds. He stated that he brought additional loaded magazines to the school campus and kept them hidden in a backpack until he got on campus to begin his assault.” [1 image, 2 links, 3 quotations, 213 words]https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/officers-searched-florida-school-shooting-suspect-was-shopping-campus-authorities-n848501https://hellogiggles.com/news/florida-shooting-suspect-nikolas-cruz/
