Hip Hop Reacts To Fatal Santa Fe High School Shooting

Sugar Land, TX – Shots erupted at Santa Fe High School in Sugar Land, Texas on Friday morning (May 18).

According to CNN, the gunman — identified as 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis — entered an art school classroom and opened fire. Ten fatalities have been reported and 10 others were wounded. Two suspects, including Pagourtzis, are in police custody.

CNN reports retired Houston police officer John Barnes, who was working at the school, was one of the people shot at Santa Fe High School. Houston’s police chief tweeted that he visited the hospital where Barnes was being treated and that Barnes was “hanging in there.”

In a letter issued to the community, school district officials wrote, “Today is a day to be in mourning those we have lost and nursing those who are hurt. We are in this together.”

Social media erupted with reactions to the tragedy, including Bun B, Khalid and CHIKA.
