When reports began circulating that an active shooter was on the FSU campus in Tallahassee, Anne-Mari Eriksen was one of countless distressed parents trying to make contact with their loved ones at the school.
At this stage, she was desperate to find out if her son was okay, but as details emerged through a press conference on Thursday afternoon, a new nightmare emerged – her son was responsible for the carnage unfolding.
Phoenix Ikner, 20, was identified later by cops as the shooter, with authorities revealing he was the son of sheriff’s deputy Jessica Ikner and had used her weapon to kill two people and injure another six.
