Timeline published in local news reports suggests police in Uvalde had ability to confront gunman far earlier during May attack in which 21 died
Multiple police officers armed with rifles and at least one ballistic shield were at the site of the Robb elementary school mass shooting in
The timeline the American-Statesman and KVUE reported from the documents included footage from inside the school that showed the 18-year-old gunman casually entering a rear door at 11.33am, walking to a classroom and immediately spraying gunfire before barricading himself. Video showed 11 officers entering the school three minutes later, the outlets reported.
Another officer with a ballistic shield arrived at 12.03pm, and another came with a shield two minutes later. About 30 minutes before officers finally breached the classroom door, Arredondo is heard wondering aloud if the gunman could be shot through a window. At 12.46pm, Arredondo told the tactical team members to breach the door when ready, the outlets reported.
On 2 June, state senator Roland Gutierrez said it was a “system failure” that Arredondo received no word of the pleas for help from people inside the school because he had no two-way radio link with city police. “I want to know specifically who was receiving the 911 calls,” Gutierrez said during a news conference.
