In the art complex of Santa Fe High School, in Santa Fe, Texas, at approximately 7:40 am, a 17-year-old student called Dimitrios Pagourtzis, entered a ceramics room connected to two classrooms by smashing a door window. The 17-year-old was wearing a black t-shirt with the phrase “BORN TO KILL” on it, a black cap which he wore backwards and a black duster coat with numerous pins on it including a hammer and sickle, an iron cross and a Cthulu pin. In his hands he held a Remington 870 pump-action shotgun and a Rossi .38 special revolver, that he had stolen from his Father. For the next 20 minutes, Pagourtzis moved between the two art rooms, killing people. He laughed, taunted and played Japanese war music as he walked around the art rooms, executing students. He targeted certain people and let others live to “have his story told”. At one point, as cellphones began ringing across the room, Pagourtzis approached an art room storage closet that a number of students had barricaded themselves inside of and said to the students inside “do you think it’s for you? do you want to come answer it?” he then fired a shotgun blast through the door into the storage closet. He then left the room, prompting the students in the storage room to exit and attempt to barricade the door. As they began work on barricading the door, Pagourtzis burst through it, shouted “SURPRISE!”, and shot a student he knew in the chest. After 20 minutes, he had killed 10 people and left 12 injured.
After shooting into the ceramics room, he was engaged by a Santa Fe school police officer and a Texas State Trooper who attempted to have him surrender peacefully. For four minutes, Pagourtzis engaged in a shootout with the police. He threatened to shoot the officers and repeatedly fired rounds in their direction as he argued with them. At some point during the shootout, Pagourtzis held his revolver to his head, with the intention of killing himself. But Pagourtzis was unable to end his own life and so continued to shoot at officers, critically injuring one of them. After being injured in the shootout, Pagourtzis surrendered to the police.
Notable Facts/Past Events
According to the Mother of Shana Fisher, a 16-year-old student who was among the first to be killed, Pagourtzis “had dated (Shana Fisher’s) friend before and then turned to her. She wanted nothing to do with him,“ and that Fisher “had 4 months of problems from this boy.” Fisher’s mother claims that Pagourtzis continued to get more and more aggressive until Fisher finally stood up to him and embarrassed him in class. Fisher’s mother claims this incident occurred 1 week before the shooting.
Pagourtzis posted a picture of his duster on his Facebook along with text describing what the different pins represented in his eyes:
Hammer and Sickle=Rebellion
Rising Sun=Kamikaze Tactics
Iron Cross=Bravery
