Texas DPS Director Steve McCraw says Uvalde school doors were shut, not locked
DPS Director Steve McCraw testified before a committee about the shooting in Uvalde. He testified about the external doors at Robb Elementary School and how the gunman was able to gain entry. In a state Senate hearing June 21, McCraw said "The only thing stopping a hallway of dedicated officers from entering Room 111 and 112 was the on-scene commander who decided to place the lives of officers before the lives of children" and "Obviously, not enough training was done in this situation, plain and simple. Because terrible decisions were made by the on-site commander."
