OlderCamila Mendes Sends Condolences to High School Shooting Victims in Her Hometown of Parkland
Camila Mendes is mourning the victims of the horrific high school shooting that happened on Valentine’s Day (February 14) in Parkland, Florida.
The 23-year-old Riverdale actress also grew up in that same town.
“#Parkland used to be my home, my sister attended Marjory Stoneman Douglas when I was in elementary school there. It’s devastating that such a violent tragedy happened in a place that I’ve always considered safe, a place that I associate with such innocent, childhood memories,” she wrote on Twitter.
“My heart goes out to all the families who are grieving the loss of a loved one, and for all the survivors who have to live with the trauma.”
