First Responders

Medina, who was not armed, was the first to see killer Nikolas Cruz walk onto the campus. He told investigators shortly after the shooting that he didn’t confront Cruz or lock down the school. Instead, Medina said he radioed ahead to warn Taylor that a suspicious kid was headed his way. Taylor hid in a closet. [More]
