'Let’s rush in because the cops aren’t doing anything': Parents frustrated with 'unprepared' police outside Texas massacre school debated storming the building THEMSELVES while gunman was holed up inside for 90 minutes
Footage has emerged showing the panic-stricken parents of the Texas schoolchildren screaming at law enforcement to enter the school
It was unclear whether the footage was shot during the shooting, or after the event when the gunman was already dead
Questions are being asked as to why it took 90 minutes between the first 911 call and the gunman being shot dead
It also emerged on Wednesday night that the authorities had to find a key to get inside the room where the gunman was barricaded with the children
Jacinto Cazares's daughter Jacklyn was among the 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde shot dead Tuesday by Salvador Ramos, 18
Cazares wants answers as to why the first 911 call came at 11:32am, and yet Ramos was not shot dead until 1pm
One man who lives opposite the school said that a woman was yelling at the police: 'Go in there!' - but they did not
The school had armed security, yet Ramos was still able to get in: multiple officers were shot by Ramos, who was wearing body armor without plates
The city of Uvalde is 80 miles west of San Antonio and the same distance from the border with Mexico: Border Agents were among those who responded
Texas's director of the department of public safety said: 'Obviously, this is situation we failed in the sense that we didn't prevent this mass attack'
He added: 'But I can tell you those officers that arrived on the scene and put their lives in danger — they saved other kids. They kept him pinned down'
