Nikolas Cruz murdered 17 people at his old high school after being flagged as a clear threat — and the Florida school shooter may have chosen Valentine's Day for his massacre after being expelled over a girl!

The psycho stalked the halls of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., after being thrown out of the school after a brawl with another teen over Cruz's former girlfriend. Both teachers and students came forward to say that Cruz, 19, had also been accused of being abusive to his high-school love — although the official cause given for his expulsion was "disciplinary reasons."

Math teacher Jim Gard added that Cruz had remained obsessed with his ex "to the point of stalking her." But while the shocking revelation may indicate why Cruz chose Valentine's Day as the deadly date for his sick mission, there are still plenty of other questions — including how the sicko made it back into the school after boasting on social media about his dream of being "a professional school shooter," and even posting photos of animals he killed!

The orphaned teen was apprehended by a SWAT team and charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder. Fifteen more wounded victims remain hospitalized after Cruz stormed into the school before blasting at innocent teachers and students with an AR-15 rifle.
