## Transcript

The shooter is 20 year old Phoenix Eichner. Eichner. And he's a son of a Leon County sheriff deputy. Unfortunately, her son had access to one of her weapons, and that was one of the weapons that was found at the scene. And we will continue that investigation into how that weapon was used and what other weapons perhaps, he may have had access to. The alleged shooter was also a long standing member of the Leon County Sheriff's Office Citizen Advisory or Youth Advisory Council, so he has been steeped in the Leon County Sheriff's Office family, engaged in a number of training programs that we have.

So it's not a surprise to us that he had access to weapons. This event is tragic in more ways than you people in the audience could ever offend him. From a law enforcement perspective, but I will tell you this we will make sure that we do everything we can to prosecute and make sure that we send a message to folks that this will never be tolerated here in Leon County, and I dare say, across this state and across this nation. This is a tragic day for Florida State University. We're absolutely heartbroken by the violence that occurred on our campus earlier today. Two have died. Five other innocents are being treated for their injuries.

We're working to support the victims, their families and everyone affected by this traumatic event.
