The former student suspected of opening fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland may have been identified as a potential threat to fellow students in the past, according to one teacher.

The 19-year-old ex-student, who has been detained by Broward police, has not been publicly identified as a suspect. But a law-enforcement source identified him as Nicolas Cruz.

“We were told last year that he wasn’t allowed on campus with a backpack on him,” said math teacher Jim Gard, who said Cruz had been in his class last year. “There were problems with him last year threatening students, and I guess he was asked to leave campus.”

The Broward County School District Superintendent, however, told reporters on Wednesday afternoon that he did not know of any concerns raised about the student.

Will the political horde throw away our Second Amendment rights for the sake of hanging on to its pot? The punk was obviously on drugs. It’s what the kids of counter-culture kids do.

Disarm the drug addicts now!

To address the initial raw data, I was told Nicholas Cruz was a 19 year old red headed beanpole with freckles in a burgundy shirt.

Video of the arrest clearly shows this guy had short cropped dark hair, he had a burgundy shirt..

The reports make it sound like the kid is an orphan.

Where are the parents?
