Thank you very much. Friends and students that weve talked to have told us a lot more about this shooter from what weve heard so far. Were going to have more on that in just a moment. Just a little while ago, i did speak with jim gard whos a math teacher. He locked himself and several students inside his classroom during what was happening and he talked about what happened yesterday afternoon. Right around 2 20, i heard the fire alarm go off, so i told the kids, i said, hang out for a second. This could be something accidental. Then we got an announcement that said, okay, evacuate the building about ten seconds later. I opened the door, the kids took off. The kids were great. They were very orderly. As i was ready to leave, we hear all these popping sounds. It sounded like firecrackers and we heard mr. Porter came on again and said code red get back in the room, so i yelled to the kids, i go, lets get back in here. There were five or six kids, i got them right back in. They asked what was happening. I said, i dont know. Lets assume its a drill. And really 20 minutes later we knew it wasnt. So the kids went where . They were in my room. Now, all the other kids what i did was went on my email and a lot of teachers were emailing these children are with me, these children are with me and these are who i dont have. I put all who i had and the others who were absent and the others who were missing to try to find out where they are. The other kids had cell phones. We were all texting and the ten of the 13 the other three we didnt know but we found them later on at 4 00 we got relief. Were hearing stories about many teachers like you who tried to protect the students, in some cases took them in closets, in some cases may have shielded these students. Can you talk about your fellow teachers and how theyre doing this morning . I only know that our i dont know what news is out there or what names is out there, but one of our teachers was apparently well two of them was shot and killed while standing in front of kids. I dont know if his name is out. It doesnt surprise me. Ive known him since i got here in 2008. He was fantastic. He went here. He was an eagle. He was a great guy. Friends and students are describing to us the suspect as a troubled violent teenager before he was kicked out of Stoneman Douglas high. One student who knew nik cruz said he had threatened other students and overnight the fbi began searching the home here where cruz live. Thats where Jericka Duncan is this morning. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning, jeff. The house youre talking about is behind me and around the corner. Thats where cruz was most recently staying. According to the attorney for the family, he was there for a month and a half. He had been bouncing around since the death of his mother back in november. As you mentioned students and friends were surprised by all this. They knew cruz had a troubled past. But they never thought this 57, 130pound teen was capable of such a massacre. As investigators searched through the home where nikolas cruz lived, new details are emerging about the 19yearolds unsettled past. They let him live here because he didnt have somewhere to live. Reporter the Attorney Says the family gave him a place to stay. They cant believe someone who lived in their home for this relatively short period of time was capable of such a horrible, horrible act. Reporter cruz was getting an education and worked at the dollar store as a cashier. He illegally purchased the ar15 used in attack. After the shooting students described cruz as a loaner who struggled in school. A lot of people were saying it was going to be him. A lot of kids said he would be the one to shoot up the school. It turns out, you know, everyone predicted it. Reporter paul gold lived next door to cruz in parkland and said the death of his adopted mother had a major impact. At times he had so much anger inside of him. Reporter cruz complained about being bullied and picked on at school. Kids mistreated and obviously he wasnt given the best hand in line. When you see that picture, how does it make you feel . It makes me sick. It makes me sick to think he would do Something Like that. Reporter gold says cruzs adopted mother had him in counseling but that that ended after her death. Meanwhile cruz is being held right now at the Broward County sheriffs office. Jeff . Jericka, thanks. For now, Fran Townsend is with us. Sh is our cbs News Senior National security analyst. She was Homeland Security and counterterrorism adviser for president george w. Bush. Welcome, fran. What are investigators trying to find out about the shooter . They want to understand both his mental history. We know there was this report from a video blogger on youtube back in november identifying cruz to the fbi. Difficult when i say identifying, he identified the comment. He was interviewed. The video blogger asked if he knew him. He said, no, he didnt know him. It was reported but taken down. It reports to a host of issues. For one, when we think of Homeland Security, we think of terrorism issues, natural disasters. We dont think of School Shootings. Right now when you think of this, this is the 18th scoot sh School Shooting. Last year we had sneechb do we need to rethink what Homeland Security really means . I think thats exactly right, gayle. Imagine for a moment, if the shooter was a muslim, we would be having a different kind of conversation. How wrong does that feel . This ought to be at the top of the list of home zurt threats bus we have an obligation to protect our children. Even if we have a political difference, its time to put that aside. Im surprised about the ar15. They cost about 2,000. Thats a lot for a person working at a dollar store. The ar15 has been used in six of the deadliest massacres. Newtown, san bernardino, pulse shooting in orlando, sutherland springs. Do we need to have changes at the atf about who can buy this weapon . Look, norah. You know better than anybody. There has been debates about put ing the Assault Rifle was really intended for military use, right . I think of that from my time in government being the u. S. Military overseas. We understand people in Law Enforcement have an absolute need for it. We had an assault weapons ban. It expired. And the politicians in washington dont seem to be having that. Should a 19yearold kicked out of school be able to buy that gun is the question. The one other issue i want to raise this morning is the social media companies. In this case, youtube should have taken that comment down that identified him. Just to clarify, that comment, im going to be a professional shooter. Right. They took that down, but they need to do more, right . They need to provide resources, people who go hunting on their networks, youtube, facebook, instagram. Find this stuff they dont just take it duh but take it down and present it to Law Enforcement so they can prevent it. The man who saw it said he took it to the fbi and was interviewed. But did it go anywhere else from there . Did anybody follow up with nikolas cruz . We dont know if they could identify him. Thats kmorn name. Did they understand he had other social media accounts that might have triggered more concern. Thank you, fran. Thank you.
