Crime Figure. On January 10, 2020, an 11-year-old student identified as José Ángel Ramos Betts, armed with two guns in his backpack, an automatic .40 caliber and another .22 caliber, both owned by his grandfather, opened fire at the facilities of Colegio Miguel de Cervantes Campus Bosque, a private school in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico, killing a teacher, María Assaf Medina, and wounding teachers and classmates. The assailant wore a white T-shirt that read "Natural selection" and pants with black suspenders, which were reported as referring to Eric Harris, one of the perpetrators of the Columbine High School massacre, who wore similar clothing during the 1999 massacre. Before firing, he said "Hoy va a ser el día" ("Today is going to be the day"). He started firing against the physical education teacher and five other classmates, injuring all of them. He then shot María Assaf Medina, who died instantly, before committing suicide. When they heard the shots, teachers from other classrooms asked their students to take shelter. After the shooting, the authorities cordoned off the area and initiated investigations. Witnesses stated that the child was a student of academic excellence and no previous problems had been reported with him. The boy's mother died in an operation a few years earlier and his 37-year-old father was not present, so the child lived with paternal grandparents. His father had spent time in prison for trafficking methamphetamine in El Paso, Texas, but had recently been released; the grandfather's bank account was frozen because of "irregular money transfers" involving millions of dollars between the two men. The 58-year-old grandfather, José Ángel Ramos Saucedo, also had a record of drug trafficking. The grandfather has been arrested and charged with homicide by neglect in leaving his guns where a child could access them; he may be charged with money laundering and tax evasion.
