JAKARTA - This is a piece of the story that was left behind the attack on Salvador Ramos at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, United States on May 24. About how an 11 year old boy saves himself.

The boy's name was Miah Cerrillo. He survived Ramos' shot in a way that made no sense for Cerrillo's age.

"I took his blood and smeared it all over my body," Cerrillo said in front of US lawmakers on Wednesday, June 8, quoted from Channel News Asia, Thursday, June 9.

The smeared blood belonged to the friend who was right next to him. Cerrillo's friend gets shot by Ramos' gun. However, it was not explained what happened to his friend Cerrillo.

Miah Cerrillo and parents of several young Americans killed and injured in a series of mass shootings testify before a congressional panel. Parliament is working on whether there is a compromise on gun safety by Democrats and Republicans.

"He told my teacher and shot him in the head," Cerrillo recalled.

"And then he shot some of my classmates and the blackboard," he said, describing the situation during the raid.

"He shot my friend who was next to me ... and I thought he was going back to the room. I got his blood and I smeared it all on me," he continued.

Cerrillo expressly admits that he is afraid that such violence could happen again in schools.
