TUESDAY, MAY 24, 2022 - 04:46 PM

Sixteen people are dead, including 14 children, a teacher, and the suspected gunman following an "active shooter" report at Robb Elementary school in Uvdale, Texas, according to Gov. Greg Abbott.
According to Fox7 Austin, the deceased children are 2nd, 3rd and 4th graders between the ages of 7 and 9 years-old. Another 13 children were transported to the hospital.
The suspected shooter, 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, is believed to have acted alone. It is unclear what his relationship is to the school, if any.

"He shot and killed, horrifically, incomprehensibly, 14 students and killed a teacher," said Abbott, adding that two officers were shot and wounded and are expected to survive.



Ramos was a resident of the community, according to the governor, who added that the shooter was likely killed by responding officers but that events are still being investigated.

Uvalde Memorial Hospital said they received 13 children by ambulance or buses for treatment. The hospital added that two children were transferred to a hospital in San Antonio and one child was pending transfer. The hospital added that two individuals were pronounced dead on arrival.
The Texas Department of Public Safety and Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin told Fox News that the shooter – who ran to the school – became barricaded inside it.
"There is an active shooter at Robb Elementary. Law enforcement is on site," the school posted on Facebook. "Your cooperation is needed at this time by not visiting the campus."
The school later posted on Facebook alerting parents that students were being transported to the Willie DeLeon Civic Center for reunification. Additionally, all district and campus activities, after-school programs and events, were canceled for the remainder of the day. -Fox7

That was my FIRST thought or this kid was dumped off on Grandma as a UAC.

Was Grandma here legally?

We need to deport all these damn illegal aliens and their UACs.

I want to know his FULL background, he is 18, we have a right to know!

And Border Patrol have been dumping illegal aliens in Uvalde too.

Send them back over the border ASAP.

Cannot imagine the heartbreak of the families. God help them through their forever grief.

2 people have said Anchor Baby

18 years old, Dirt Poor but had 2 AR-15s

better not be true or Crap is going to hit the fan
