The identities of two people who were murdered in the mass shooting that took place at Florida State University have been revealed. One of the deceased was an executive in charge of food services, while the other was a dining hall employee.
Ricardo Morales Jr., Robert Morales’ elder brother, recognized him as one of the victims of the massacre in a touching post on social media. Robert Morales attended Florida State University and worked as a food coordinator there.
One of the other people who passed away was named as Tiru Chabba. He was a South Carolina native and a father of two children. He was employed by Aramark and was there on campus when the horrific shooting occurred on Thursday.
According to Morales’ brother, Robert cherished his family, including his wife and kid, as well as his position at Florida State University. Robert reportedly opened a Cuban restaurant in Tallahassee, which is the location of the Florida State University campus, and he also served as an assistant coach at Leon High School, which is situated nearby.
An attorney for Chabba’s family disclosed to NBC Miami, “Instead of hiding Easter eggs and visiting with friends and family, they’re living a nightmare where this loving father and devoted husband was stolen from them in an act of senseless and preventable violence.”
Phoenix Ikner, a student at Florida State University who is twenty years old and the stepson of a Lee County Sheriff’s officer, has been identified as the person responsible for the shooting, according to the police. Moreover, he is receiving medical care in a hospital.
