An 11-year-old survivor of the Robb Elementary School massacre in Uvalde, Texas, feared the gunman would come back for her so she smeared herself in her friend’s blood and played dead. Miah Cerrillo spoke exclusively to CNN about her horrific experience that day inside the classroom where the mass shooting took place. She told CNN the shooter looked at one of her teachers in the eye, said, “Goodnight,” and then shot her. So, she dipped her hands in the blood of a classmate — who lay next to her, already dead — and then smeared the blood all over herself to play dead. Miah said it felt like three hours that she lay there, covered in her classmate’s blood, with her friends.
