Sen. Roland Gutierrez called it a “system failure” that calls help from people inside Robb Elementary School on May 24 did not make their way to school district police Chief Pete Arredondo.
, said Arredondo believed the situation had turned into hostage situation and made the “wrong decision” to not order officers to attempt to breach the classroom as 911 calls were being made to the outside.
Gutierrez said it’s unclear if any details from the 911 calls was being shared with law enforcement officers from multiple agencies on the scene. “Uvalde PD was the one receiving the 911 calls for 45 minutes while officers were sitting in a hallway, while 19 officers were sitting in a hallway for 45 minutes” Gutierrez said. “We don’t know if it was being communicated to those people or not.”
But, the senator said, the Commission on State Emergency Communications told him school district police chief did not know.Uvalde Police Chief Daniel Rodriguez and a department spokesman have not responded to phone messages and emails from The Associated Press seeking comment Thursday.
