Inside, he embarked on a deadly rampage that brought the national scourge of school shootings to a fourth-grade classroom in this southern Texas town. Authorities say the attack was part of a grisly checklist Ramos had shared in private social media messages early Tuesday. Politicians pleaded for “common sense” gun laws after at least 19 students and two adults were killed in a mass shooting in Uvalde, Tex., on May 24. Two Uvalde police officers then showed up, Considine said, and tried to get inside, exchanging more gunfire with Ramos. Seven minutes later, school authorities announced on social media there was “an active shooter at Robb Elementary.”Shots were still being heard at 12:52 p.m., according to radio recordings.
