shooter used to enter the school was actually not propped open as initially reported, but closed by a teacher once she realized there was a gunman on campus. investigators trying to figure out why that door failed to lock. shimon prokupecz, you spoke briefly this morning with chief aradondo, someone everyone has been wanting to hear from. what happened? reporter: yeah, certainly, we ve been trying to make contact with him for the last several days. we haven t heard from him since the day of the shooting. we ve been at his house. finally this morning, our producer, erin cooper, spotted him at his home, had a brief conversation with him, but then we were here at the chief s office here at the school district behind me when we spotted him coming in through the back and we approached him to ask some questions. specifically, the accusation that he was the one who ultimately made the decision, that he was the incident commander who decided not to allow officers to breach that doo
formula, gerber goods out to a major retailer last weekend. so just one retailer got all of those 38,000 cans. we do not know who that is. it s unclear if the cans actually hit shelves because one thing i learned about the formula distribution system, which i didn t know much about before is that there s several different distribution sites and several different layers and levels. it s not as quick as you might think. now, most of the nestle formula did not go to stores. instead, it went to hospitals, to women, infant and children programs, and home health care companies. also, in australia, a company is sending baby formula to the u.s. next week, their ceo told me this morning that they are expecting to send 250,000 cans to the united states. that s way more than nestle, and then in the coming weeks and months, it will be 1.25 million cans. so again, that s much more than nestle, hoping that makes more of a dent. right now, we sent cnn staff
