NEW: One of many Factual Conclusions from the Robb Elementary Investigative Committee Report is that “not all teachers received timely notice of the lockdown, including the teacher in Room 111.” Poor WiFi and the school intercom not being used contributed to this. @FOX4
More from the Texas House of Representatives Investigative Committee on the Robb Elementary Shooting…
“Robb Elementary had a culture of noncompliance with safety policies requiring doors to be kept locked, which turned out to be fatal.” @FOX4
“The attacker developed sociopathic and violent tendencies, but he received no mental health assistance.”
“There apparently was no information actually known to local Uvalde law enforcement that should have identified this attacker as a threat...” @FOX4
The Investigative Committee on the Robb Elementary Shooting finds “The school made no meaningful intervention with the attacker” before he was kicked out for performance/absences. It then finds the district had “no information” that should’ve identified him as a threat. @FOX4
NEW: @alerrtcenter previously said an officer had a chance to shoot/kill the Robb Elementary gunman before he entered the school. Now, the Investigative Committee says the person thought to be the gunman appears to have been “a school coach.”
“Robb Elementary School Coach Yvette Silva acted heroically and almost certainly saved lives by alerting the school to the attacker’s advance. Most fourth grade classes successfully locked down as a result of her quick response.” @FOX4
“The scene was chaotic, without any person obviously in charge or directing the law enforcement response.”
Texas House of Representatives Investigative Committee on the Robb Elementary Shooting is highly critical of Uvalde CISD Police Chief Pete Arredondo. @FOX4
“While 911 received communications from victims inside Rooms 111 and 112, Chief [Pete] Arredondo did not learn about it because of his failure to establish a reliable method of receiving critical information from outside the building.” @FOX4
“The Committee has not received medical evidence that would inform a judgment about whether breaching the classroom sooner than the approximately 73 minutes that passed between the first responders’ initial arrival…could have…saved lives or mitigated injuries.” @FOX4
The final page of the Texas House of Representatives Investigative Committee on the Robb Elementary Shooting report lists the 19 students and two teachers killed… @FOX4
“The owner of the gun store described the attacker as an “average customer with no ‘red flags.’”
Patrons of the store later told the FBI the attacker was “very nervous looking” and that he “appeared odd and looked like one of those school shooters.” @FOX4#RobbElementaryschool
“In the last days before the shooting, the attacker…spent time with his cousin’s son, who attended Robb Elementary. After playing the children’s videogame Roblox, the attacker elicited from him details about his schedule and how lunch periods worked at the school.” @FOX4

An 18-year old black man — Rodney Reese — was walking home from work at @Walmart during #TexasFreeze when @PlanoPoliceDept officers charged him with “Pedestrian in the Roadway”, Tuesday. He spent the night in jail. I’m speaking with him — and the Chief of Police, tonight. @FOX4

HIS OWN WORDS: I gave Rodney Reese (18) — who was arrested for walking along the street during a snow storm, last week — an open mic as our interview closed. “It hurts, man. You don’t know if you’re going to make it back home.” FULL STORY: facebook.com/10005049648943…@FOX4
