Gunman shot and killed within hour of entering school, authorities say
As law enforcement officials continue to scrutinize each movement made by alleged gunman Salvador Ramos inside Robb Elementary School, Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw said that law enforcement officers shot and killed the suspect roughly 40 minutes to an hour after his first encounter with the school district's resource officer at the building entrance.
"I don’t want to give you a particular timeline. But the bottom line is that law enforcement was there," McCraw told reporters during a briefing Wednesday. "They did engage immediately. They did contain him in the classroom, and they put a tactical stack together in a very orderly way and of course breached.”
McCraw later said that investigators plan to go frame-by-frame through surveillance footage to "track every minute" of the gunman's movement and will provide an update once that work is completed.
