On 14 FEB 2018, around 2:40pm, 19 year old Nikolas began a mass shooting spree in the halls of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, a school from which he was previously expelled, reportedly for behavioral issues.
It is being reported that Nikolas was the adopted son of the late Roger and Lynda Cruz. Roger died of a heart attack in 2005, leaving this property to Lynda, Nikolas, and his brother Zachary. In January 2017, the family is reported to have sold the home due to financial issues. Lynda died in November 2017 from pneumonia, 3 months prior to the shooting.
