Nikolas Cruz Reported To Cops 35 Times And Practiced Shooting Gun Before Killings

The 19-year-old who confessed to killing 17 people with an AR-15 type of weapon at a Florida high school could’ve been stopped according to new reports. CNN reports that Cruz was filmed by a neighbor wearing a red “Make America Great” cap, while having a target in his backyard.

Here is footage and photos of Cruz shirtless, pointing and shooting the gun in his socks.

To make matters worse, Cruz has had run ins with the FBI and Cops dozens of times in the last 6 years. One report says sheriff’s deputies responded to his home more than 35 times in just six years according to Fox News.

Buzzfeed reported that THIRTY SIX 911 calls were made in the community were Nikolas and his family stayed about the killer. One caller described Cruz and his brother repeatedly “threw items,” were “out of control” and fought with their mother and each other on an apparently regular basis.

Cops ignored the signs. Cruz was never arrested – and was basically cleared as being “no threat to anyone or himself,” as one therapist said in a police report from Sept. 28, 2016.

RIP to his 17 deceased victims and hundreds traumatized by his actions.
