Ramos first shot his grandmother and then got into a car accident near Robb Elementary School.

This was reported by some police sources in CNN, underlining that the killer after the accident got out of the car with a rifle and tried to enter the school when some officers tried to stop him.

The killer still managed to make his way and enter the building where he shot in several classrooms.

A few days after the shooting, Ramos had sent photos of weapons and ammunition to a former classmate of his.

The same former partner at CNN tells it.

"He sent me a picture of an Ar that he was using with ammunition," he said, reporting that the killer was being mocked by other high school students for the clothes he was wearing and the financial situation of his family.

Ramos was a difficult kid, didn't go to school often and annoyed other students.

Abc reports it citing some sources, according to which he was "on the radar of the school. It was known that he had problems but no one has ever reported him to the authorities".
