Salvador Ramos, the accused in the horrific Texas elementary school shooting that killed 21, including 19 children, had a minor quarrel with his grandmother over the payment of a phone bill, according to Ramdos’ grandfather Rolando Reyes, who expressed shock at his grandson’s role in one of the country’s most tragic mass shootings.
He told ABC News that he learned from neighbors that Salvador Ramdos shot at his grandmother at their Uvalde house before driving his grandparents’ car to Robb Elementary School and opening fire. Ramos was shot and murdered by police, while his grandma is in critical condition in the hospital.
Rolando Reyes admitted that he had no idea his grandson had purchased rifles. He would have reported the guns to the authorities if he had known about them. After a quarrel with his mother, Ramos has been residing with his grandparents for the past few months.
There was no sign the morning of the catastrophe; only Ramdos had a minor quarrel with his grandma — not a massive one, as Reyes maintained.
According to reports, Salvador Ramos had a terrible childhood, including being bullied at school and having problems at home. He has a history of self-harm as well. Ramos’ cousin Mia told The Washington Post that he was teased in middle school because of a speech impediment and would tell his grandmother that he didn’t want to go to school.
