Them. Shepard well talk with a teacher that was at the school yesterday and once had the suspect in her class. Lets get to it. Shepard here we are again. First from the fox news deck this afternoon. The suspected gunman in yesterdays massacre in florida has ties to a White National group that held its own militarystyle drills. Thats according to the leader of the very group. He told the Associated Press that he didnt know the 19yearold personally but the suspect took it upon himself to shoot up the school and may have been over as he put it trouble with a girl. Thats the latest were learning about the man investigators killed 17 people yesterday. One of the Deadliest School shootings in our nations history. A little more than 24 hours later, were finding out the red flags seem to be just about everywhere. The fbi this morning reported it received a warning months ago about a potential School Shooter with the same name as the suspect. The warning about this comment on a youtube channel. It reads im going to be a professional School Shooter. You can see the user name there. Its the same as the shooters. The feds say there was not enough information. No other information was included with that comment . Which would indicate a time, location or the true identity of the person that made the comment. The fbi conducted database reviews, checks and wasnt able to further identify the purpose that actually made the comment. Shepard investigators say gunman showed up in his former school just before classes left for day in parkland. They said he had a semiautomatic weapon and ammunition, smoke grenades and a gas mask. He was ready to go. Cops say he set off the fire alarm, pulled that so that his classmates would come out in the hallways so it would be open season. Fellow students described the horror that unfolded in front of them. I was like in the building in front of the shooter. Like right where he pulled the fire alarm. Me and my friends were going downstairs because we thought it was a fire alarm. He was loading the gun. We go upstairs to the third floor. Like everyone get into a classroom. We hear bullets coming closer and closer and then hear kids screaming. I was in the classroom. All i heard was the gun shots. The police cleared us to go outside, i saw dead bodies. My teacher was dead. I saw him. In my class. Shepard wow. Children. Hundreds of students and staff pouring out of the school with their hands all in the air. An all too familiar scene since columbine. Police say they found the suspect about a mile from the school. They say he had multiple ammunition magazines on him but he did not put up a fight. I mentioned all the red flags. Students have been saying that the suspect loved to show off his weapons, that he bragged about killing animals. Once teacher told a miami herald newspaper warning that this particular suspect, man, now, 19, shouldnt have a backpack on campus. Students also said the man was a becausive with his exgirlfriend and the school expelled him because he got into fight with her new boyfriend. Many say they talked about it, talked about it at school and they said if anybody was going to shoot it up, it would be he. He was a troubled kid. Everybody thought he joked. It was a lot like crazy stuff that he did. Just not right for school. He got kicked out for that kind of stuff. Honestly, people were saying it was him. All kind threw jokes around like that he would shoot up the school. Turns out everyone predicted it. Its craziness. Shepard of course theres plenty of questions left for investigators. Steve harrigan tops our coverage live from the shooting scene. Parkland florida, northwestern Broward County what are you learning about the suspect . Shepard, new details are emerging about nikolas cruz. His mother died years ago and his mother died three months ago. She had the flu and died of pneumonia. Some say that threw him in a tail spin. He was in the magistrates room earlier and a video conference. He looked frail. 130 pounds. He purchased the ar15 legally. He was in an orange jump suit and also been in a Suicide Prevention vest. He had no bond set and now he faces 17 counts of first degree murder. That number could go up. Five of his victims are still in the hospital in life threatening condition, shepard. Shepard we watched with a lot of interest when the officer that spotted him and took him down came to microphones. Thats right. Unlike most of these shooters, this one survived. He didnt turn the weapon on himself. There was chaos in the scene at the school with the fire alarm, the bodies, the blood, the smoke. He managed to escape. This officer explained a short time ago how he captured the suspect. He complied with my commands. And was taken into custody without any issues. Now the families of all 17 that were killed have been notified. Were starting to hear from some of those family members. Their names have not been identified but theyre posting on social media themselves. A longer than a typical sound bite but gives you the sense of the mood here on the ground. A father writes my heart is broken. Yesterday we lost our baby girl to a violent shooting at her school. We lost our daughter and my son, jesse loss his sister. Im broken as i write this trying to figure out how my family gets through this. We appreciate the calls and messages and apologize for not reacting to everyone individually. Jen and i will be figuring things out today. Well be getting messages out later regarding visitation. Hugs to all and hold your children tight. A sign here the carnage goes beyond the 17 people killed, shepard. Shepard wow. Steve harrigan. We have the richest country on the planet and theres been 25 School Shootings since columbine. 25 School Shootings. Doesnt happen anywhere else in the world. 54 Mass Shootings since the turn of the century. We have all of the resources in the world and we cant figure out why this happens in our country and doesnt happen everywhere else. Why cant we come together as a society and say were going to research this, going to bring our best and brightest together and put them in a room and give them whatever they need to figure out why are our children killing each other more than anything else . Give them whatever they need. We change the course of human events around the world. We put a man on the moon 50 years ago and we cant figure out why only our children are running around killing each other. It doesnt happen everywhere else. It happens here. Why cant they put the best and the brightest together to help us stop it . Failing our children. Yesterdays massacre is the deadliest mass shooting in modern u. S. History in which the suspect has survived. Thats according to fox news researchers. So never before somebody accused of shooting and killing this many people lived to see the inside of a courtroom. Thats something. Bob bianci is here with us. Is there something we can learn from this suspect in hes still alive. They briefed him, shep. As you pointed out, we know more than the Law Enforcement will that these incidents related to school will happen with greater and greater frequency. Weve done nothing to get the best minds together to eradicate it. Shepard this process, one thing about florida, you know, it happens in florida, youre going to see it. The sunshine laws in florida are almost unique in the country in that were going to have access to everything. Theres video inside. Were going to see the videos, the evidence. The whole world will see it. Yeah, and a great prosecution. They have a lot of data. Hopefully the psycho psychologists will get into the mind of Something Like this. Like youve indicated, this will going to be full board with the prosecutors. Death penalty all the way. A lot of evidence. Theyll look into late groups and spark a debate like people like you are going to shepard sparks a debate every time. Youre right. But somebody has to do something. Shepard we said that after new town. Absolutely. Shepard from a Law Enforcement perspective, its never a bad day to give props to Law Enforcement but they were all over this thing yesterday. It was so fast. They had him in custody before the really people knew what they were doing. It was astounding and amazing. Impressive. Ive been involved shepard theres chaos. Yeah. You dont know where the bad guy is, if theres other kids. Parents coming to the scene, media coming to the scene. They did a tremendous job as well as capturing him safety to be prosecuted. Shepard this happens the first time we ever saw it happen live in front of us because youre in the Television Market where its competitive and they have choppers, resources, columbine. And yesterday, the news people down there, they really keep you informed. We saw the whole thing unfold. And the processes that they have put into place, the changes put in police since columbine, swat teams act and react differently. What did you think . I thought it was great. When we were teaching schools what to do, theres a lot of divergence of what people think is the right thing to do. Do you lock down, do you set up perimeters, fight, jump out. I found the person that was responsible, even though i was an attorney, responsible for 44 law ebb forcement agencies, a lot of debate how to go about doing this. So we went to school by school with operational plans and try to teach a uniform and consistent message. That needs to be done nationally. In morris county, new jersey, the former president of the Chiefs Association out there has a class 3 retired Police Officer squad that goes out to schools, working with the schools. So when you go there, shep, we had plans in hand. When we go to the scene and theres an active shooter scenario, we didnt have to worry about where is the boiler room, where are the utilities, who is in charge. We knew that on the way up there so we were able to immediately interdict. Parents have to start targeting their heads. They have to have real conversations about this. God forbid in a school or another context. How dare you talk to our kids about this . Its real. If it happens, they have to know what to do so they can defend themselves and sometimes it comes down to that. Shepard that School System is like a city. Its the sixth largest in the country. 337 schools, 270,000 students. 30,000 employees. Every single one of them feels this today. All of them are changed, right . Yeah. All of them changed. What really concerns me, a lot of points of data in here, whether its the fbi or whether it be what happened with the school. This is not to be critical. Because theres thousands of these people out there. Lets face it. We need to do a better job coordinating that data from an intelligence point of view to put our eyes and ears on specific people. The red flags were all over the place. Its not the fault of anybody. You dont expect it to happen. Shepard we dont know whose fault it is. Theyll argue about it. One side will argue one way, one side will argue the other way just like they do every time. Just like they have 30 years. In the end, maybe we as the people will go, figure this out. Were not bad. Something different. We have to figure it out. Stop messing with politics. Who cares . Dead kids in the school yesterday and were yelling about politics. Its absurd and obscene. Im out of town. Its one of those things. Bob, good to see you. Good to see you, shep. Shepard police have started the somber task now of naming the victims. Some of them heros that gave their lives to help the others. Thats another thing we find in this these things. The heros emerge. Who knew would emerge .

Shepard he threw himself in front of the students and selfishly shielded them from the shooter. He died yesterday as a hero. Thats what members of the Football Team at Marjory StonemanDouglas High School are saying about aaron feis. They say he used to attend the school and started working there after graduating. One of those guys that never left. He loved the kids and they loved him. Not a bad word for him. The head football coach told the local newspaper, the sun sentinel, that coach feis was a big old teddy bear. An excellent family man that coached hard and took pride working with his student athletes. One student said he talked to coach feis not long before the shooter killed him. I had a 20minute conversation in between classes talking to him, seeing how football was because we started our season again. He was happy, making sure everybody was getting to class. Doing his normal thing. I heard from a friend of mine. He was a big man. He wanted to make sure that everybody was safe. I heard he got in front of a cold people and shielded them. He took the bullets for them. He saved their life for sure. Shepard and heros emerge. Coach feis one of 17 victims that died in broward yesterday. Phil keating is in south florida, live in parkland, hi, phil. The day began with a Prayer Service at a nearby church. People gathered openly, bowing their heads and saying a prayer to do whatever they could to try to get some condolences and grief relief passed on to the family members of the 17 fatalities. Keep in mind, 14 others injuries. These are people that lost their loved ones, boyfriends, wives, girlfriends. We know that three were adults a geometry teacher, aaron feis, the coach and Security Guard and another teacher there at the school, the Athletic Director specifically. We do have some of their names that we have learned. You saw the images yesterday. The students running, fleeing from the school in panic and terror. No one can imagine what its like to be in that position even though weve seen it on tv so many times until your in that position. I can give you a background on a few of these victims. 15yearold alissa. She was a freshman and soccer player. 14yearold martin duque. Another 14yearold, gina rose. She was a freshman that served on the teams winter guard team. And joaquin oliver. He was a u. S. Citizen just a year ago. These are all some of the victims here out of total 17 fatalities and what is now the Worst High School shooting in history. Outpacing columbine by two victims. Heres attorney general pam bondi on the difficulty that her job requires on times like this. The other scene was at the hotel where we were with the family members. Having to tell with the fbi advocates and my advocates that a child, some 14 years old, dead, is one of the hardest things you have to do in your career. These parents, tremendous families are grieving. Please respect their privacy. We were there until about 3 30 a. M. With these families. Many of them had siblings that were in the school and survived. And then a brother or a sister did not. A vigil has been planned for 6 00 p. M. At the parkland amphitheater. We expect that right around sunset time to be packed with people because this truly is parkland, florida, a community; shep. Shepard thanks, phil. Coverage continues after this. Patrick woke up with a sore back. But hes got work to do. So he took aleve this morning. If hed taken tylenol, hed be stopping for more pills right now. Only aleve has the strength to stop tough pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. Tylenol cant do that. Aleve. All day strong. All day long. And for pain relief and a good nights rest, try aleve pm for a better am. I heard five pops. I was like thats not a drill. Lets go i dont know how were alive. Its a day that you pray every day, i get up, that we will never have to see. As soon as he graduated, he became a Security Guard. Thats where he spent his whole career. He sprinted toward it to make sure that everybody was safe. I heard he got in front of a couple people and shielded them. I was coming for lunch. I was sitting down. All i heard is pop pop pop. I heard boom boom boom. Seven shots. Fully automatic, bang, bang. After i heard the shots, i was leaving. I heard like two more. Every one just climbing the fence. Everyone. Like theres no room. It was just like praying and crying. And then the police came. We just got out. No parent should ever have to send their kids to school and have them not return. Shepard the day that everything changed in parkland, florida. They have just released just came
