Who Is Eli Crumbley And Is He Ethan Crumbley Brother?

Eli Crumbley is the half older brother of Ethan Crumbley. He described his brother as a quiet but happy boy who stayed out of trouble and never exhibited violent tendencies.

Eli who is 18 now can not understand how his own sibling could suddenly snap, open fire, and kill his classmates, following the deadly rampage in Oxford, Michigan on Tuesday.

He further added Ethan was a smart boy who was like any other average kid and he’d never get suspended from school, or detention either.

There were no signs of depression or anything like that. He woke up happy, went to school, came home, and played games.

He told he hadn’t spoken with Ethan or his father in two months but reached out to his dad Tuesday night only after hearing the news of a mass shooting at Oxford High School.

He even learned Ethan used a 9mm Sig Sauer semi-automatic handgun, that his own father bought.
