The tragedy brought back memories of the nation's third deadliest school shooting on May 24, 2022, when 18-year-old Salvador Ramos killed 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. The police then were severely criticized for waiting over an hour before taking down the suspect, with a Texas House committee report concluding they"failed to prioritize saving the lives of innocent victims over their own safety."
