Texas School Shooting: Gunman sent online warning minutes before attack

Must read

It has been revealed that the gunman, identified as Salvador Ramos, 18,  who killed 19 school children and two teachers in the Texas deadliest shooting in a decade, gave online warning  minutes before the shooting.

The shooter’s online posts were made on Facebook, Governor Greg Abbot revealed.

However, spokespeople for Facebook’s parent company, Meta Platforms (FB.O), said they were private one-to-one messages discovered after the shooting.

The company declined to say who received the messages or which of Meta’s platforms, such as Messenger or Instagram, was used to send them.

Victims’ loved ones took to social media to express anguish over the loss of children who never came home from school.

“We told her we loved her and would pick her up after school,” Kimberly Mata-Rubio posted on Facebook in a remembrance of her daughter, Alexandria Aniyah Rubio, a fourth-grade honor student. “We had no idea this was goodbye.”
