New Disturbing Details Emerge About Shooter Who Attacked Texas Elementary School | Eastern North Carolina Now

    New disturbing details emerged late on Tuesday evening about the 18-year-old male who shot up an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, earlier in the day.

    The suspect was quickly killed by a U.S. Border Patrol agent who reportedly heard the shots and rushed into the building, but not before the suspect shot dozens of people, including at least 19 children who ultimately succumbed to their injuries.

    A report in The Washington Post about the suspect, whom The Daily Wire is not naming due to company policy about not giving notoriety to mass killers, painted a familiar portrait of a violent individual who appears to have previous encounters with law enforcement officials.

    The Washington Post, which reported that the mass murderer was bullied for wearing black eyeliner and having a lisp according to family and friends, reported that those closest to the suspect said that he had "lashed out violently against peers and strangers recently and over the years."

    The suspect, a Latino male, reportedly cut up his own face with a knife because he claimed that it was "fun," according to one of the suspect's former friends.

    The friend indicated that the suspect drove around with another friend at night on multiple occasions and shot at random people with a BB gun.

    One of his female classmates said that he posted a video to Instagram a couple of months ago "where the cops were there and he'd call his mom a b**** and say she wanted to kick him out. He'd be screaming and talking to his mom really aggressively."

    "As he grew older, problems at home became more acute and more apparent to neighbors," The report said. "A neighbor described seeing police at the house and witnessing blowups between [the suspect] and his mother."

    The female classmate said that she could recall at least five times that the suspect had "fistfights with peers in middle school and junior high."

    The suspect had chaotic relationships, including one friendship that quickly ended because he started talking about the friend killing people as a Marine.

    Democrats immediately seized on the tragedy as many called for new gun control laws, while other Democrats used it as a cudgel to attack Republicans.

    The shooting happened in the city of Uvalde, which is approximately 85 miles west of San Antonio and has a population of roughly 16,000 people.

    "Texans across the state are grieving for the victims of this senseless crime and for the community of Uvalde," Texas Governor Greg Abbott said. "Cecilia and I mourn this horrific loss and we urge all Texans to come together to show our unwavering support to all who are suffering."

    "We thank the courageous first responders who worked to finally secure Robb Elementary School," he continued. "I have instructed the Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas Rangers to work with local law enforcement to fully investigate this crime. The Texas Division of Emergency Management is charged with providing local officials all resources necessary to respond to this tragedy as the State of Texas works to ensure the community has what it needs to heal."
