Officers armed with rifles and pistols were positioned outside the unlocked classroom at Robb Elementary School just three minutes after the gunman began opening fire inside, according to bombshell testimony heard at a Texas Senate hearing on the Uvalde mass shooting.
Steve McCraw, director of the Texas Department of Public Safety (TDPS), testified on Tuesday morning that officers could have ended the active shooting situation and begun rescuing the wounded and dying victims just three minutes after it began.
