The mother of accused 18-year-old gunman Salvador Ramos who killed 19 students and two teachers in Texas said he wasn’t a violent person but suggested he was a loner who kept to himself.

“My son wasn’t a violent person. I’m surprised by what he did,” Adriana Reyes, the mother, told the Daily Mail on Wednesday. “I pray for those families. I’m praying for all of those innocent children, yes I am. They [the children] had no part in this.”
