Sheriff Scott Israel of Broward County, Florida, said that the man, Nikolas Cruz, 19, previously attended Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland but was expelled after getting into trouble. Jim Gard, a math teacher at Stoneman Douglas High School, said in an interview that Cruz was a student in his class during the first semester of the 2016-17 school year. In the interview with the Miami news station, the student said Cruz was a junior at Stoneman Douglas High School when he was expelled last year. After Cruz left Stoneman Douglas High School, he took a job at a Dollar Tree store about a mile and a half from the school. Another student at Stoneman Douglas High School, Ocean Parodie, told The Daily Beast that he visited the store after Cruz was expelled to check on him.
