What the heck was going on there? Sounds like that school and the local police force were ill prepared to handle an active shooter. I know for a fact that all of our local schools have active shooter plans, drill regularly and that all school entrances are locked and monitored at the first sign of trouble. All but the main entrances are locked for the entire school day here.
They had:
- The gunman outside the school for 12min shooting his gun
- Then he was able to walk right into the school through an unlocked entrance
- No police response for 14min after the 911 call
- Parents were able to get into the school and remove children before the police entered the building
- The Border patrol officers who took care of the situation didn't enter the building until 40min after the shooting started
It's hard to wrap my head around this.
