The tragedy of the Texas elementary school shooting in the United States was conveyed more vividly through closed circuit (CC) TV in the school.



According to the video obtained by USA Today and reported on the 12th (local time), the incompetence and cowardice of the police in the course of the catastrophe stood out.



The video begins on May 24 at 11:28 a.m. in the Lob Elementary School parking lot in Uvaldy, Texas.



A pickup truck rushes nearby at high speed and causes a crash.



Gunman Salverdore Ramos, 18, fired three shots at two men as they approached the vehicle.



A teacher called 911 at 11:31 a.m. after the men sprinted away in fear.



"The kids are running away. How the hell is this..."



Ramos starts shooting at the school building at 11:32 a.m. from the school parking lot.



Tang Tang!

Tang Tang Tang!

A voice is followed by the teacher's urgent cry to the children.



"Get down. Enter the classroom! Enter the classroom!"



At 11:33, Ramos enters the classroom hallway with an AR-15 assault rifle, but no one stops him.



He leisurely flicks his hair back with one hand and then trudges into his classroom.



A kid who went to the bathroom and was returning to the classroom accidentally sees Ramos from behind and secretly watches over him.



A few seconds later, Ramos fires at the classroom, and the kid turns back and runs back into the bathroom at Hornbi Baeksan.



As Ramos enters the classroom, the screams of the children are heard.



The shooting continued sporadically in two classrooms for two and a half minutes.



Authorities said Ramos fired about 100 shots at the time.



The police arrived at the school at 11:36 am, three minutes after the shooting started.



Officers with pistols sneak through the hallway and slowly make their way towards the classroom.



However, a minute later, at 11:37 a.m., when gunfire rang, they hurriedly backtrack from near the classroom and run away.



Since then, no one has approached the classroom.



At 11:52, 19 minutes after the shooting started, an additional heavily armed police officer wearing a helmet, bulletproof vest, and bulletproof shield arrives.



However, after 30 minutes, the police do not do any rescue work and just repeat discussions in the hallway.



At 12:21, 48 minutes after the first shot, four gunshots resound in the classroom.



Even the heavily armed police did not come to the rescue despite hearing additional gunfire.



They bring tear gas, gas masks, and hammers, and then continue to hesitate.



At 12:50, 77 minutes after the shooting started and 74 minutes after arriving at the school.



The police finally break through the classroom door and shoot Ramos.



When the police officers, startled by a gunshot while standing in the rear, step back and notice that the shooter is being suppressed, they try to advance into the classroom at once.



In the process of restraining them, a commotion ensued between the castle and the castle, and the situation ends.



On that day, at Rob Elementary School, a total of 21 people including 19 students and 2 teachers were shot and killed by Ramos.



USA Today pointed out that it is a "real-time video showing the brutal story of a heavily armed police officer who failed to respond immediately to save more children."



He lamented, "It is a deep wound to the parents, friends, witnesses, children who hid in the classroom and called 911, who begged the police to do something."



At the time of the incident, Uvaldi Police, as well as agents from the Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Rangers, Federal Border Patrol and the Federal Security Service were present.



Texas Public Safety Commissioner Steve Macro said the police did not kill the body.



He argued that the failure of the response was that the on-site commander misjudged the situation as a threat or hostage play that required a calm and meticulous response, rather than a shooting.
