执法部门和州长确认枪手是萨尔瓦多·拉莫斯。多个执法部门消息人士告诉ABC新闻，当局已经找到了一支AR-15式步枪和许多杂志。

消息人士称，嫌疑人穿着防弹衣，当他接近学校时，立即被一名乌瓦尔德独立学区的警察击中。

据消息来源称，被枪杀的学生主要是三、四年级学生和一名教师。

当局最初表示，嫌疑人还涉嫌在进入学校并再次开火之前，在另一个现场开枪打死了他的祖母。美国广播公司新闻后来得知，他的祖母情况危急，但还活着。

据多名执法官员称，在第一次枪击后，嫌疑人在小学外撞毁了他的汽车。

美国边境巡逻人员回应了执法部门的援助请求，乌瓦尔迪·ISD的官员和边境巡逻战术小组人员在大楼内与嫌疑人交火。

阿博特说，受伤者中有两名做出反应的警察。他说，他们有望幸存。德尔里奥区负责人Jason D. Owens告诉ABC新闻，一名边境巡逻人员在试图保护学生时受伤，正在医院康复。

“当父母把孩子送到学校时，他们非常希望知道他们能够在一天结束时去接孩子。还有一些家庭正在哀悼，”艾伯特说。“德克萨斯州与他们一起哀悼，因为这些父母将无法接他们的孩子。”

乌瓦尔迪纪念医院表示，事件发生后，15名学生正在医院的急诊科接受治疗。医院表示，两名患者被转移到圣安东尼奥接受治疗，而第三名患者正在等待转移。医院说，一名45岁的人被子弹擦伤后也住院了。

圣安东尼奥的大学健康说枪击事件中有两名病人----一名66岁的妇女和一名10岁的女孩----情况危急。

据安说，枪击事件的两名成年受害者都处于危急状态，也在圣安东尼奥的布鲁克陆军医疗中心接受治疗陆军军官。

执法人员告诉ABC新闻，许多枪击受害者是海关和边境巡逻人员的孩子。

乌瓦尔迪市长唐·麦克劳克林(Don McLaughlin)没有证实人员伤亡，但在一条短信中告诉美国广播公司新闻(ABC News)，“这是一个非常糟糕的情况。”他说，在发布任何信息之前，办公室正试图联系家长。

早些时候，乌瓦尔德联合独立学区表示，一名枪手位于罗布小学，并要求人们远离该地区。

“罗布小学有一名活跃的枪手，”该学区在推特上说。“执法部门就在现场。此时，不要访问校园，需要你的合作。一旦收集到更多信息，我们将与大家分享。”

一名学校官员最初告诉ABC新闻，枪击发生在校园外，罗伯小学被封锁。

警方称，枪击发生在当地时间上午11点30分后不久。这所学校有二、三、四年级的学生，知情的父母下午2点过后不久，学生们被送到了重新统一的地方，威利·德里昂市政中心，可以去接他们了。

父母瑞安·拉米雷斯告诉圣安东尼奥ABC电视台的KSAT，枪击事件发生后，他已经去了市民中心和小学，试图找到他四年级的女儿。

“[我]只是感到困惑和担心。我正试图找到我的孩子在哪里，”他告诉电视台。

德克萨斯州的乌瓦尔迪位于圣安东尼奥以西约90分钟路程。

贝克萨尔县警长办公室和圣安东尼奥警察局正在发送援助，美国联邦调查局正在回应。

酒精、烟草、火器和爆炸物管理局休斯顿分局还说它正在协助调查。

一位发言人说，国土安全部部长亚历杭德罗·马约尔卡斯(Alejandro Mayorkas)已经听取了有关情况的简报，该机构“正在与联邦、州和地方合作伙伴积极协调”。该地区的海关和边境保护官员也对现场作出了反应。

根据ABC新闻获得的执法公告，国家反恐行动中心认为目前“没有已知的恐怖主义联系”。

At least 19 children, 2 adults dead after shooting at Texas elementary school

At least 19 children and two teachers are dead after a shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

The 18-year-old suspect, a student at Uvalde High School, is also dead, Gov. Greg Abbott said.

Abbott said the suspect "shot and killed horrifically and incomprehensibly" more than a dozen students and a teacher.

The shooter was identified by law enforcement sources and the governor as Salvador Ramos. Authorities have recovered an AR-15-style rifle and numerous magazines, multiple law enforcement sources told ABC News.

The suspect, who was wearing body armor, was immediately engaged outside the building as he approached the school by a Uvalde Independent School District police officer, who was shot by the suspect, the sources said.

 

The students shot were mainly third- and fourth-graders, and one teacher, according to the sources.

Authorities initially said the suspect also allegedly shot and killed his grandmother at a separate scene before entering the school and again opening fire. ABC News later learned that his grandmother is in critical condition but alive.

After the first shooting, the suspect then crashed his car outside the elementary school, according to multiple law enforcement officials.

U.S. Border Patrol Agents responded to a law enforcement request for assistance, and Uvalde ISD officers and Border Patrol Tactical Unit agents traded fire with the suspect inside the building.

Two responding police officers were among those injured, Abbott said. They are expected to survive, he said. One of the Border Patrol agents sustained injuries while trying to protect students and is at the hospital recovering, Del Rio Sector Chief Jason D. Owens told ABC News.

"When parents drop their kids off at school, they have every expectation to know that they're going to be able to pick their child up when that school day ends. And there are families who are in mourning right now," Abbott said. "The state of Texas is in mourning with them for the reality that these parents are not going to be able to pick up their children."

Uvalde Memorial Hospital had said 15 students were being treated in the hospital's emergency department in the wake of the incident. Two patients were transferred to San Antonio for treatment, while a third was pending transfer, the hospital said. A 45-year-old was also hospitalized after getting grazed by a bullet, the hospital said.

University Health in San Antoniosaidit had two patients from the shooting incident -- a 66-year-old woman and a 10-year-old girl -- both in critical condition.

Two adult victims of the shooting, both in critical condition, are also being treated at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, according to anArmy official.

A number of the shooting victims are children of Customs and Border Patrol agents, law enforcement sources told ABC News.

Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin did not confirm casualties, but told ABC News in a text message that "this is a very bad situation." He said the office is trying to contact parents before releasing any information.

Earlier, the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District had said a shooter was located at Robb Elementary School and asked people to stay away from the area.

"There is an active shooter at Robb Elementary," the school district said on Twitter. "Law enforcement is on site. Your cooperation is needed at this time by not visiting the campus. As soon as more information is gathered it will be shared."

A school official initially told ABC News that the shooting took place off campus, and that Robb Elementary School was under lockdown.

The shooting occurred shortly after 11:30 a.m. local time, police said.The school, which has students in the second, third and fourth grades,informed parentsshortly after 2 p.m. that students had been transported to the Sgt. Willie Deleon Civic Center, the reunification site, and could be picked up.

Parent Ryan Ramirez told San Antonio ABC affiliate KSAT he had gone to the civic center and the elementary school trying to find his fourth grade daughter in the wake of the shooting.

"[I'm] just confused and worried. I'm trying to find out where my baby's at," he told the station.

Uvalde, Texas, is located about 90 minutes west of San Antonio.

The Bexar County Sheriff's Office and San Antonio Police Department are sending aid, and the FBI is responding.

The Houston Field Division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosivesalso saidit is assisting in the investigation.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been briefed on the situation and the agency "is actively coordinating with federal, state, and local partners," a spokesperson said. Customs and Border Protection officials in the area also responded to the scene.

The National Counterterrorism Operations Center believes there is "no known terrorism nexus" at this time, according to a law enforcement bulletin obtained by ABC News.
