Uvalde, Texas School Shooting: 19 Children, 2 Teachers Killed, Suspected Shooter Dead

A mass shooting at a Texas elementary school killed 19 children and two teachers Tuesday and the suspected gunman was killed, Gov. Greg Abbott said.

Abbott identified the suspect as Salvador Ramos, a Uvalde resident, who is also dead and acted alone, authorities said. He had a handgun and possibly a rifle when he opened fire at Robb Elementary School, he said. Two police officers were shot and wounded but were expected to survive, Abbott said.

“Texans across the state are grieving for the victims of this senseless crime and for the community of Uvalde. Cecilia and I mourn this horrific loss and we urge all Texans to come together to show our unwavering support to all who are suffering,” he said in a statement. . .

University Health in San Antonio said it received two patients – a child and a 66-year-old woman who is in critical condition. The condition of the child was not released. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been briefed on the shooting. (Read more from “Uvalde, Texas School Shooting: 19 Children, 2 Teachers Killed, Suspected Shooter Dead” HERE)
