A 10-year-old schoolgirl was shot dead as she tried to call 911 during America's most deadly school shooting in a decade.
An 18-year-old suspect, identified by police as Salvador Ramos, opened fire with a handgun and rifle in Robb Elementary in the city of Uvalde, Texas while clad in body armour.
Amerie Jo Garza, a fourth-grader at the school, was one of the 21 victims killed by Ramos in the deadliest American school shooting since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary a decade ago.
