A gunman identify to be Salvador Ramos who is only 18 years old has opened fire at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. He was reported to have shot his grandmother Celia Martinez before stealing the family car and drove to Robb Elementary School
Investigation shows that he entered Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas at exactly 11:32 a.m. after shooting his grandmother in the head leaving her with serious injury but in a stable condition before wrecking his car close to the school.
Ramos allegedly argued with his grandmother before committing the act, according to the investigators.
The young teenager had shared photos of the firearms he had legally purchased from a local store on social media.
According to several neighbors, the grandmother was aware of her grandson’s plans and attempted to prevent him from carrying them out.
Ramos shot his 66-year-old grandmother to end the argument, and she is in critical condition at a San Antonio hospital.
Salvador Ramos was from a difficult family; his mother, Adriana Martinez, provoked him to go to his grandparents’ house in Uvalde, Texas.
Ramos lived with his two maternal grandparents, Rolando Reyes and Celia Martínez.
A man who knew the suspect’s grandmother was interviewed by reporter John Mone.
Ramos was angry that he did not graduate and he got into an argument with his grandmother, and she was screaming, ‘He shot me, He shot me’.
Rolando Reyes, the suspect’s grandfather admitted that because he is a felon, he is prohibited from owning firearms and that he was unaware that Ramos had obtained guns.
He told ABC that the suspect “had a tiny fight with his grandmother” over a phone bill, but that this wasn’t unusual.
Ramos slept on a mattress in the front room of his grandparents’ house following an altercation with his mother, according to Reyes.
The grandfather said he would sometimes take Ramos to work with him, as the teen frequently missed school and wasn’t set to graduate.
Celina’s grandson shot her in the head before driving her to Robb Elementary School.
Salvador Ramos’ grandfather claims he had no idea his grandson had high-powered assault guns at home when he killed 19 children and two instructors in Uvalde, Texas.
Celia Martinez is in serious but stable condition. According to the family, the teen had been staying with his grandparents after a falling out with his mother.
He spent the majority of his time playing video games alone in his room.
To celebrate his birthday, his grandmother had taken him to an Applebee’s restaurant.
