On January 10, 2020, an 11-year-old student identified as José Ángel Ramos Betts, armed with two guns, opened fire at the facilities of Colegio Cervantes Campus Bosque, a private school in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico, killing a teacher and injuring six others, before killing himself.
The shooter wore a white t-shirt that read "Natural selection" and pants with black suspenders, as a reference to Eric Harris, one of the perpetrators of the Columbine High School massacre.
At 8:00 a.m. on January 10, 2020, Betts arrived at the institution with two weapons in his backpack: an automatic .40 caliber and another .22 caliber, both owned by his grandfather.
At 8:20 a.m., he asked his teacher for permission to go to the bathroom. About 15 minutes later, after noticing that he was taking too long, she went to look for him. Around 8:40 a.m., he left the bathroom having changed clothes and armed himself with the two guns. María Assaf Medina, Betts' English teacher, confronted him and asked him to stop shooting.
Before firing, he said "Hoy va a ser el día" ("Today is going to be the day"). He started firing at the physical education teacher and five other classmates, injuring all of them. He then shot María Assaf Medina, who died instantly, before committing suicide at around 8:43 a.m.

I remember there was also an 11 year old shooter in the US (1998 Westside, Andrew Golden), he was 4321 days old, or, 11 years, 9 months and 27 days old. I couldn't find anything on this Jose Betts kid exact brithdate, so I don't know who has the record for youngest.

Remember this one from last year?
Shooting of Abby Zwerner
On January 6, 2023, American school teacher Abby Zwerner was seriously injured when a six-year-old male student shot her while she was teaching in her classroom at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia. The boy had brought from home, in his backpack, a 9mm semi-automatic pistol belonging to his mother.
Zwerner's shooting provoked conversations about the culpability of young shooters and their parents, and comparisons with the 2000 killing of Kayla Rolland, also committed by a six-year-old student.
The mother of the six-year-old male was convicted of criminal possession of a weapon, making false statements, and child neglect in relation to the shooting, and was sentenced to 3+3⁄4 years in prison. She has publicly stated that she takes responsibility for the shooting.
