Robb Elementary School shooting in Uvalde, Texas

14 students, 1 teacher dead after shooting at Texas elementary school: Gov. Abbott​

Fourteen students and a teacher are dead after a shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, according to Gov. Greg Abbott.

The 18-year-old suspect, a student at Uvalde High School, is also dead, he said.

"He shot and killed horrifically and incomprehensibly 14 students and killed a teacher," Abbott said during an unrelated press briefing.

The suspect also allegedly shot his grandmother before entering the school and again opening fire, Abbott said. He did not say anything further about her condition.

Abbott said the shooter had a handgun and also possibly a rifle.


Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin did not confirm casualties, but told ABC News in a text message that "this is a very bad situation." He said the office is trying to contact parents before releasing any information.

This is all so heartbreaking, things cant go on like this in the US.
🥺

From when I was in school, I don't remember one school shooting or a kid bringing a gun to school or ever showing me one. There had been cases in the U.S. Very few. Like the "I hate Mondays" Case, From which the song is based. That took place in California in 1976 IIRC. And IIRC She was 16. She is still in prison.
 

Officer husband of slain Uvalde teacher was detained, had gun taken away after trying to save wife​

Texas Department of Public Safety Director Col. Steven McCraw revealed that the husband of slain elementary teacher Eva Mireles tried to save her but was barred from doing so.

Ruben Ruiz is a police officer for the school district and was on the scene after the gunman entered the school and opened fire.

McCraw said Mireles called Ruiz and told him that “she had been shot and was dying.”

“And what happened to him, is he tried to move forward into the hallway,” McCraw said. “He was detained and they took his gun away from him and escorted him off the scene.”
 

I'm speechless.
