Audrey Conklin and William Luther report that parents were tased and arrested while “trying to save the kids at Uvalde”.

Parents are frustrated and confused about what happened at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas that left 21 people dead.

“Uvalde Police Department Chief Daniel Rodriguez released a statement saying its officers responded to reports of a shooter “within minutes,” alongside school district officers. Two responding officers sustained gunshot wounds,” but witnesses say different. They claim the police would not protect the children.

Audrey Conklin and William Luther report that parents were tased and arrested while “trying to save the kids at Uvalde”.

“Angeli Rose Gomez, a parent of two children in second and third grade at Robb Elementary, told The Wall Street Journal that Texas Rangers arrested her for intervening in an active situation after she and other parents urged police to enter the school building while the suspect was believed to be inside.”

“The police were doing nothing,” she told the outlet. “They were just standing outside the fence. They weren’t going in there or running anywhere.”

Police Do Not Protect the Public. That was the 2005 court ruling.

“Go in there! Go in there!” onlookers shouted at the officers soon after the attack began, said Juan Carranza, 24, who saw the scene from outside his house, across the street from Robb Elementary School in the close-knit town of Uvalde. Carranza said the officers did not go in.

“Javier Cazares, whose fourth-grade daughter, Jacklyn Cazares, was killed in the attack, said he raced to the school when he heard about the shooting, arriving while police were still gathered outside the building. Upset that police were not moving in, he raised the idea of charging into the school with several other bystanders.”
