After mass shootings in 2018 and 2019, Texas lawmakers made it easier to get guns

FORT WORTH, Texas — More than a dozen students and a teacher are dead after a mass shooting at a Texas elementary school.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Tuesday said 14 students and a teacher were killed at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, a city west of San Antonio. A 18-year-old gun man entered the school with a handgun and possibly a rifle after abandoning his car, Abbott told reporters. The gunman is deceased and it’s believed responding officers killed him, Abbott said.

“Texans across the state are grieving for the victims of this senseless crime and for the community of Uvalde,” Abbott said in a statement.
