Thousands mourn victims of Florida school shooting
Thousands attended a vigil to mourn the 17 victims who were slaughtered by a 19-year-old former student at a high school in Florida which had ousted him for indiscipline.
Nikolas Cruz carried out one of the worst mass shootings in US history at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland on Wednesday.
The mourners, who gathered at the Pine Trails Park, Parkland, on Thursday evening were moved to tears when the father of a 14-year-old girl, Jamie Guttenberg, one of the victims, spoke about her.
“Jamie was the light of the party,” he said, adding that after he lost his brother to cancer last year he thought the pain was unbearable but what he has experienced since he lost his daughter was infinitely worse.
