On February 14th, 2018, 19-year-old Nikolas Jacob Cruz walked into his former high school, Stoneman Douglas High School, in Parkland, Florida. Carrying with him an AR-15, he walked over to the nearest fire alarm and activated it. Once students walked out into the hallways, he opened fire on them. The shooting ended after 6 minutes, after which Cruz attempted to flee the scene. He was caught after 40 minutes. 17 students died, along with 17 others injured, marking it the deadliest high school shooting in modern American history since the Columbine High School shooting on April 20th, 1999.[1]
