Uvalde schools police chief didn’t receive 911 calls
Investigators are trying to understand why Uvalde’s schools police chief was unaware of crucial 911 communications while in command of officers assembled at an elementary school where 18-year-old Salvador Ramos killed 19 children and 2 teachers.
A state senator said Thursday that as the tragedy unfolded, the police chief, Pedro “Pete” Arredondo, did not receive 911 dispatches that indicated children were still alive in the classroom at Robb Elementary School and were begging to be rescued. Why Arredondo did not receive those communications — given that numerous officers from various agencies were at the scene, many of them with radios — is a key focus of a state investigation into the tragedy.
One state official told the Express-News he had been told Arredondo did not have his police radio with him. Other police sources cannot say for certain if he had one, but they said he did make phone calls to the Uvalde Police Department to get information and may have missed 911 calls from desperate students inside — something that would later prove costly.
