Authorities say the victim death toll from the Texas school shooting now stands at 19 children and two adults. The latest figures come from Travis Considine, a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety. The gunman also died.
However, Federal law enforcement officials - speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to release investigative details - said the death toll was expected to rise. Authorities offered no names or descriptions of the two adults.
It was the deadliest shooting at a US grade school since a gunman killed 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, almost a decade ago.
