During the trial of former Broward Deputy Scot Peterson, a Coral Springs police officer testified that he mistook gunshots for fireworks during the 2018 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Jeffrey Heinrich, who was off-duty and watering the baseball field 200 yards away from the building where 17 people were killed, heard loud bangs but thought a student had set off firecrackers. It wasn’t until he saw panicked students running from the building and interviewed a wounded student that he realized it was a shooting. Heinrich approached the school unarmed and eventually helped a student with a gunshot wound to his leg. Peterson is charged with failing to stop the shooter, and if convicted, he could face nearly a century in prison. The trial, which began on Wednesday, is expected to last up to two months.
