Shocking new video has emerged showing Texas cops restraining parents as they tried to rescue their kids on Tuesday after a gunman unleashed terror inside the elementary school, as questions grow over why it took so long to get to the shooter after the first 911 call.
Salvador Ramos, 18, arrived at the school in Uvalde at 11.30am, crashing his car into a ditch.
A school resource officer was at the scene but he failed to stop him from making his way inside.
Two other cops also rushed to the school at that time - Ramos had just shot his grandmother in the face at their home less than five miles away. She survived and called the police.
When they arrived, Ramos is said to have shot at them then ran into the school, where he barricaded himself in the fourth grade classroom and shot 19 kids and two teachers dead.
It took another 90 minutes from that point for police to declare the shooting over.
Now, sources say police were struggling to get into the classroom and needed a key to open the door.
Eventually, a border patrol agent was able to get inside and the shooting was declared over at 1.06pm.
But it questions remain over why it took police so long to get into the classroom where the kids were trapped with the gunman.
One child told KENS 5 that he was able to hide under a desk, but that a girl who yelled out 'help' when police arrived was executed.

Ha ha ha!! So we can expect the media to write endless articles praising the virtues, and heroism of all police departments across the country as a whole?? Those will be coming out shortly right?
How do we know they were unarmed? My guess CCW in a high percentage.
That woman is armed.
And isn't it interesting that none of this info is being discussed by the main stream media. They can't even bring themselves to label him "hispanic."
Years ago when I went through Hostage & Negotiation Training, the first thing they told us was to assume the hostages were already dead.
Second guessing is one of the easiest things in life to do.
You don’t even need an above average IQ to do it.
You, as a first responder, don’t know how many were already in there. You are depending on MSM reports.
The law enforcement hesitated because it was discovered the shooter had a copy of Hunter Biden’s hard drive and threatened to give it to the MSM.
Only shows that we need guns on the hips of qualified teachers and marshals in every school. There are too many crazies running around that should be in asylums, which I don’t know if they are still around.
Democrats are the cause of these shootings because that’s what THEY want!
THEY made it possible by their laws.
Butthole is a POS and he will not get ahead in Texas!
I think I don’t know and neither do you. The difference is you believe the MSM.
That doesn't mean everyone who wanted to storm the school was armed. And even if some of the armed parents stormed the school, that doesn't mean they wouldn't get themselves, along with other parents, and even more kids killed or wounded. Allowing a group of parents en masse to enter that school would have been nothing but a free-for-all.
They couldn’t get in because they needed a key, but the gunman was able to get inside without one? And it couldn’t be because he broke the door down because it was closed and locked when police arrived. So the door that should have been closed and locked was not.
Since the report says that the resource officer engaged the killer before he got into the school, the sounds of gunfire should have been the signal for everybody to close and lock their doors. We’ll never know why the two teachers killed didn’t. Not blaming them, they may have been showing a movie (last couple of days of school) and not heard the shots. Why the office didn’t alert the whole school, I don’t know.
The fact that the locked classroom doors caused a delay for police shows me that had the classrooms’ doors been locked, a lot (all?) of the kids would still be alive.
If she was wearing a chanclas... she was armed. Latino men know better.
Many buildings have emergency key boxes at an entrance that is not the main entrance so that access to a master key is available. The AAR will note if this school had such a box(es).
I would never depend on MSM reports. Have you seen the iPhone video?
But what a message that would have sent...
Spoken like a real invertebrate. Bravo.
Maybe one of the armed parents should have held one of the cops hostage and organized an assault.
ARs aren’t $1800 any more. You can get them for $400-500.
AR-15s aren’t $4000.
