The Uvalde Police delayed taking action toward moving on the gunman, Salvador Ramos, and helping the children trapped within the Texas school out of fear. Now the Uvalde district is planning on making its police force larger as a response to the mass shooting. Adrienne Lawrence and Brett Erlich break it down on The Damage Report.

Aware of Injuries Inside, Uvalde Police Waited to Confront Gunman

"Heavily armed officers delayed confronting a gunman in Uvalde, Texas, for more than an hour even though supervisors at the scene had been told that some trapped with him in two elementary school classrooms needed medical treatment, a new review of video footage and other investigative material shows. Instead, the documents show, they waited for protective equipment to lower the risk to law enforcement officers.

The school district police chief, who was leading the response to the May 24 shooting, appeared to be agonizing over the length of time it was taking to secure the shields that would help protect officers when they entered and to find a key for the classroom doors, according to law enforcement documents and video gathered as part of the investigation reviewed by The New York Times.

The chief, Pete Arredondo, and others at the scene became aware that not everyone inside the classrooms was already dead, the documents showed, including a report from a school district police officer whose wife, a teacher, had spoken to him by phone from one of the classrooms to say she had been shot."
