Onlookers pleaded for police to enter Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas while the gunman who killed 21 people was inside the school for roughly an hour, according to reports from the Associated Press and The New York Times.
The shooter, 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, was inside the school for about 40 minutes to an hour before he was shot several times by Border Patrol agents, Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) chief Steven McGraw said at a news conference on Wednesday, raising questions about why it took so long to stop the attack.
