The heartbreaking last text sent by
one of the victims of the Oregon shooter has been revealed.
Julie Woodworth, 19, was shot ten
times in the horrific attack on October 1 and is currently in a critical
condition in hospital after one of the bullets hit her in the head.
However, just 90 minutes before the
mass shooting, Julie sent a text to her boyfriend Tyler Clark, expressing how
excited she was to be starting at Umpqua Community College.
It read: “Good morning baby. I’m just
getting ready. I love you.”
Another report has also revealed that
gunman Chris Harper-Mercer actually seemed happy as he carried out his killing
spree, before shooting himself as police arrived at the scene on Thursday.
The 26-year-old murdered nine people
and injured a further nine, reportedly asking victims their religion before
shooting those who identified themselves as Christian.
Speaking to the Mail Online, Tyler
Clark described his girlfriend’s perilous condition.
He said:
"She has swelling on the brain, part of her skull is detached but the doctors can’t do any more until the swelling goes down. She looks like she’s lost 10lb, she’s all messed up and connected to a load of tubes. We’re all waiting to find out what exactly happened to her, all we know is that this guy came in, killed the teacher and then asked those who were Christian to stand up before shooting them.
In the aftermath of yet another mass
shooting in the U.S, President Barack Obama has called for stricter gun laws in
the country.
