At least 21 people including 18 children are dead after an active shooter incident on Tuesday sent a Texas elementary school into lockdown, State Senator Roland Gutierrez confirmed.
Mardi 24 mai 2022 ((rezonodwes.com))–President Joe Biden ordered flags on all public property and at U.S. embassies to be flown at half-staff in memory of those killed in the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.
Biden was on Air Force One Tuesday afternoon when officials said a gunman acting alone killed at least 14 students and a teacher at a Texas elementary school. His departure for Asia last week came just two days after he met with victims’ families after a hate-motivated shooter killed 10 Black people at a grocery store in Buffalo, New York.
The back-to-back tragedies served as sobering reminders of the frequency and brutality of an American epidemic of mass gun violence.
