Conflicting reports as to whether there are one or two in custody. Both are students.

Some reports that there are ten dead.

Supposedly there were explosives found in the vicinity of the school.

And Santa Fe High School was one of many that participated in the nationwide walkout last month.

Define "school shooting" so we all know what you call a school shooting.

At least 12 of those 22 did not occur in a school. And one (of the ones in a school) was a bb gun. And a couple (of the ones in a school) were accidental.

Does that mean the bullets didn't travel as fast or something? Or that whomever got hit wasn't injured as badly? --Bob

The Santa Fe High School shooter who killed between eight and ten people has been named as student Dimitrios ‘Dimitri’ Pagourtzis. Pagourtzis, 17, shared chilling photos on his – now removed – Facebook of a ‘Born to Kill’ t-shirt shortly before Friday morning’s massacre.

An Instagram account that appears to belong the 11th-grader shows him following multiple gun-related accounts, including ‘sickguns,’ ‘gunspictures’, as well as others called Guns Fanatics, Guns Lovers and Guns Glory. Only three photos were uploaded to it – a toy rifle attached to an arcade video game, a photo of a frog, and a picture of a gun, knife as well as torch lying on a bed. His Facebook bio declared: ‘YouTube is a Comma Kazi. It’s the one with the kamikaze pilot.

The killer, who was armed with his father’s shotgun and .38 revolver, also carried explosives including a Molotov cocktail and ‘CO2 device’.
