Salvador’s mass shooting is regarded as the deadliest American school shooting since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary which took place ten years ago.
Shockingly, Salvador had hinted that he was going to engage in a shooting spree on social media.
Salvador gave the hint by posting guns on his Instagram account which had the user name; Salv8dor_.

The photo above was posted as a story under the username “salv8dor_” and multiple classmates confirmed the account belonged to suspected gunman Salvador Ramos, who was shot dead by officers responding to the school shooting.
State police said Salvador shot and critically wounded his grandmother at her house before heading to the school.
Wearing body armour, Salvador then walked into the Robb Elementary school carrying a handgun and a semiautomatic rifle and opened fire at the children.
Salvador ended up killing 19 children and two adults until he was shot dead by a Border Patrol agent.
