At least 14 children are dead, as well as a teacher and the suspected gunman after a Texas elementary school shooting, Gov. Greg Abbott said.
The suspect is 18-year-old Uvalde, Texas, resident Salvador Ramos, Abbott told reporters at a press conference. It is believed the suspect was killed by responding law enforcement.
Officers said Ramos acted alone in his alleged rampage at Uvalde Elementary School, which has students in 2nd through 4th grade.
The shooting occurred during Uvalde School District's last week in session before the summer break, authorities said.
Ramos was a student at Uvalde High School and killed his grandmother before the alleged rampage, the Uvalde County Sheriff’s Office told the National Review.
Sources originally reported that the shooter was in custody.
"Texans across the state are grieving for the victims of this senseless crime and for the community of Uvalde," Texas Republican Gov. Abbott wrote in a press release. He said he directed state law enforcement agencies to help local officials respond to the tragedy.
The border town of Uvalde has about 16,000 residents and is about an hour and a half drive from San Antonio, where several patients were transferred to University Health for treatment.
All Uvalde school district activities are canceled, and a press conference will be held later this afternoon, the school stated.

We’ve become a very sick country.
A week doesn’t go by without one of these atrocities happening.
I really feel for the families. They must be devastated.
If it was any of those types the MSM would force the entire story down a memory hole ASAP.
So some piece of shit loser is going to shape US firearms policy.
I’m not talking about the shooter, I’m talking about Biden.
According to Abbott, he’s a US citizen.
BS!
We don't need laws threatening and forcing parents to learn about medical issues or anything else.
Was he a “white hispanic”? Media are keeping their fingers crossed.
Good question!
Where did you hear he was a "tranny"?
Did the 18 year old use an AR-15 from his parent’s gun closet like all the other school shooters? Interesting pattern…
Indeed. If not, they’ll photoshop him like they did to OJ Simpson when he got arrested. Can’t let reality get in the way of the narrative, ya’ know.
These things occur in clusters. The first whack-job gets it started and all the current ones, seeing the international publicity he gets, all want to jump in themselves. Then things tend to quiet down until the next time.
Stasi Minister Merrick Garland’s agents have determined that Sam Rayfield, aka Salvador Ramos, was white supremacist, white nationalist, ultra MAGA.
I wonder if he was another one of those being raised by grandmother. Where are his parents?
Allegedly one of his social media pics.
Picky Picky Picky
Since senator Joe Biden’s signature legislation for “gun-free school zones” was enacted, the number of school shootings has tripled in 30 years.
Time to repeal this legislation and start training teachers to shoot back.
Thanks.
Two teens arrested in 'mass casualty' plot in 2018 targeting a Uvalde middle school
I’ve heard news people saying he parked his truck and went into the school.
That pickup crashed.
Both wheels on the left side are knocked off.
The pickup isn’t on a road
The pickup is in a dry cement ditch.
There was no parking.
There was crashing.
Well, heck if he’s a tranny, all this gets excused b/c he was dealing with the stress of an oppressive America and the wrong pronouns.
