welcome to our viewers on pbs in america and around the globe. police in texas are being criticised for the way they responded to the mass shooting at a school in uvalde on tuesday. some parents say officers were too slow to confront the gunman, after he barricaded himself inside a classroom and killed 19 children and two teachers. he was eventually shot dead by police. our north america editor, sarah smith, reports from the scene. all of the 19 children and two teachers killed were in the same school class. ameriejo garza had just been given a phone for her 10th birthday. she used it to try and call the police. jackie cazares had just celebrated her first communion. she died alongside her cousin, annabelle guadalupe rodriguez. irma garcia was one the teachers killed. her husband, joe, died from a heart attack after visiting her memorial. they had four children. what were you thinking as you waited in the classroom? am i gonna die? you were worried that he might come in and s
