UT 1966 versus Uvalde

https://www.businessinsider.com/policeman-relives-texas-tower-shooting-50th-anniversary-2016-7?op=1

This was handled a bit differently by these officers than what happened in Uvalde.

These officers were up against a barricaded suspect with military training. The officers had no helmets, body armor, or military grade weapons. Guts a plenty though.

(I listened to this incident live on the radio while living in Houston.)
