Police Waited Outside Despite Pleas For Action
Police who responded to the Texas school massacre have been accused of being “unprepared” and failing to respond quickly enough after the shooter opened fire.
Onlookers said they had to urge officers to move into the Uvalde primary school as the AR-15-wielding assailant gunned down two teachers and 19 pupils.
The father of 10-year-old victim Jacklyn Cazares said he even suggested he could go in himself with other bystanders as he was frustrated police were not doing it themselves.
Details are starting to emerge of the attack and the 18-year-old shooter behind it, who has been named as Salvador Ramos.
Ramos barricaded himself inside a classroom before killing the fourth-grade students at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde on Tuesday.
The suspect, with no known criminal history or history of mental illness, was shot dead by an officer on the scene after about 60 minutes
