A survivor of a shooting at Majory Stoneman Douglas High School has said he hung up on a phone call from the White House.
David Hogg, a 17-year-old student, said he received a call asking if he was planning to attend a discussion with Donald Trump.
But he said he found the call “offensive”, since the call came during a period of mourning.
Before he hung up, he said he told the White House official: “We don’t need to listen to President Trump. President Trump needs to listen to the screams of the children and to this nation.”
In the aftermath of the shooting in Parkland, Florida, which left 17 students and teachers dead, a group of students including Mr Hogg founded gun control advocacy group Never Again MSD.
