St. Louis School Shooter Carried an AR-15 and 600 Rounds

The Central Visual and Performing Arts High School 19 year old gunman took the lives of a teacher and student just days ago in St. Louis, Missouri. It has been confirmed that the gunman was carrying an AR-15 and had more than 600 rounds in his possession when he entered the school.

Shooter Orlando Harris left a note at the school explaining his reasoning for his actions. He claimed to have no family, no girlfriend, no friends, and lived a life of isolation. Harris called it the “perfect storm for a mass shooter.” Police arrived on the scene just minutes after the 911 call was made and were quickly able to identify and secure the shooter, who died in a gunfire battle with police. The school is mourning the loss of two of their members and the injuries of other students.
