Uvalde police, faculty district now not cooperating with Texas probe of capturing: Sources

The Uvalde Police Department and the Uvalde Unbiased College District police power are not cooperating with the Texas Division of Public Safety's investigation into the bloodbath at Robb Elementary Faculty and the state's review of the regulation enforcement response, a number of regulation enforcement sources tell ABC News.

The Uvalde police chief and a spokesperson for the Uvalde Impartial School District didn't instantly reply to requests for remark from ABC News.

In keeping with sources, the decision to cease cooperating occurred quickly after the director of DPS, Col. Steven McCraw, held a news conference Friday during which he said the delayed police entry into the classroom was "the fallacious decision" and opposite to protocol.

Reached by ABC News, a spokesperson for the Texas Division of Public Safety stated, "The Uvalde Police Department and Uvalde CISD Police have been cooperating with investigators. The chief of the Uvalde CISD Police provided an preliminary interview but has not responded to a request for a follow-up interview with the Texas Rangers that was made two days in the past."

Last Tuesday's assault, one of the worst faculty shootings in U.S. history, left 19 kids and two adults dead.
