A massive shooting supposedly carried out by the son of a local sheriff left two people dead at a university in Florida, police said in the state of the southern United States on Thursday, April 17.
Five people were hospitalized after the gunman dragged through the Florida State University, shooting the students, before they were fired by the Local Police.
“Two victims have died and five people have transported bone to a local hospital with bullet wounds,” said Police Chief of the State University of Florida, Jason Trumbower.
The suspect was identified as Phoenix Ikner, 20, son of a Sheriff of Leon County and university student, Sheriff Walt McNeil told reporters.
“The Ikner deputy has a bone with the Leon County Sheriff’s office for about 18 years.” Unfortunately, his son had access to one of his weapons, and that was one of the weapons he found on the scene.
“The alleged shooter was also a long -standing member of the Sheriff’s office of Leon County, Citizens Advisor or the Youth Advisory Council, so he had a leg full of the family of the Leon County Sheriff’s office, involved in a number or training program that was not so.
