Observers who were standing outside of Robb Elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, urged police officers to go into the school and stop the shooter, but officers allegedly ignored them.
The lives of nineteen children and two teachers were taken by a mass shooter named Salvador Ramos, 18. At the time of the shooting, which lasted nearly an hour, onlookers told law officers to go inside the school and do something, but they just didn’t.
“Go in there! Go in there!” a woman shouted at the officers at the time the shooting started, said 24-year-old Juan Carranza, who was watching from his home near the school. Victims even arrived at the campus just to see officers gathering and not taking action toward the school.
At a certain point, Javier Cazares, who lost his daughter in the shooting, told other bystanders that they should all charge inside the school since police weren’t doing anything. “Let’s just rush in because the cops aren’t doing anything like they are supposed to,” he said. “More could have been done.”
He added that the officers were “unprepared.”
