person who was in custody, a male in a gray shirt but now say the handcuffs have been removed. police have not yet confirmed that shots had been fired or that anyone was injured, so i m not sure where the daily tarheel got this information, it does say, according to the radio dispatches from the police and the emergency responders. we don t know yet if that s confirmed but do see ambulances on the scene there. yeah, and john, it s interesting. about 30 minutes after they posted that report about a person in a gray shirt being in custody, the daily tarheel then quoting what they were seeing on a live broadcast from the local abc affiliate, abc 11 said the person was being questioned by the police but had had their handcuffs removed, which would be a clear indication one would think that the police do not believe that is the person they are looking for.
the local abc affiliate reports one officers can be heard on body cam video saying if there are kids in there we need to go in there. but officers reportedly stayed there in the hallway for almost 45 more minutes listening as the gunman fired rounds of shots three separate times until they eventually breached the classroom door. last night at the first school board meeting since the shooting, parents of the victims were outraged over the lack of answers, changing explanations and efforts by the city to block evidence from being made public. they are trying to cover up a lot of things and hold us back from speaking. also just that they should have just gone in there and done their job basically. they just didn t do their job. a lot of this new evidence potentially more is expected to be presented at a special texas senate hearing on the shooting today. we ll be keeping a close eye on that, bill. bill: thank you for that.
The ABC Dallas affiliate WFAA cut away from Kimmel s monologue after he called out "cowardly" senators for "listening to the NRA" after the shooting in Uvalde.
