The police made a “bad decision” by not quickly entering the school in Uvalde, where a shooter had taken refuge in a class who committed a massacre there, said Friday Steven McCraw, director of the department of Texas Public Safety.
“Looking back now, of course it wasn’t the right decision. It was the wrong decision, period, ”he said at a press conference, when asked about the much-criticized delay in the intervention of the police. Nineteen officers at the scene waited for a Border Police intervention unit, about an hour after the shooter, Salvador Ramos, broke into the building on Tuesday.
Further details will follow.
