In reply to the discussion: Uvalde Police Let Gunman In But Tried To TASER The Parents [View all]wnylib
(26,988 posts)screaming for the cops to go inside, it does suggest that the shooting might not have been over yet. Or maybe they wanted wounded kids brought out quickly to get emergency treatment. We won't know until someone speaks to whoever took the videos about when they were taken.
I am also wondering if the cops decided to evacuate the rest of the school to protect the remaining kids in other rooms before confronting the shooter. That would make sense. If they confronted the shooter first, they risked more gunfire that could pierce walls or doors into other classrooms.
But I read the account of one of the student survivors about how Ramos was shot. This kid was in an adjoining classroom with a connecting door to where the shooter was. The kid and 4 of his friends hid under a table with a tablecloth and Ramos did not see them when he shot open the connecting door. According to this student, a cop came to the hall doorway and said if there was anyone in the room who needed help to say so. A girl said, "help" and Ramos immediately shot her. Then the cop shot Ramos. An accident by the cop? Or did he use the kid's response to flush out Ramos?
I know we don't have answers yet, but I can't forget that scared little girl thinking she was safe when the cops arrived and calling out, "help," only to die.
