Uvalde police, college district now not cooperating with Texas probe of taking pictures: Sources

The Uvalde Police Division and the Uvalde Unbiased College District police power are now not cooperating with the Texas Department of Public Security's investigation into the bloodbath at Robb Elementary School and the state's evaluation of the law enforcement response, multiple legislation enforcement sources inform ABC News.

The Uvalde police chief and a spokesperson for the Uvalde Independent College District did not immediately reply to requests for remark from ABC News.

In accordance with sources, the choice to stop cooperating occurred quickly after the director of DPS, Col. Steven McCraw, held a information conference Friday during which he said the delayed police entry into the classroom was "the mistaken determination" and opposite to protocol.

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

Last Tuesday's attack, one of many worst school shootings in U.S. history, left 19 children and two adults useless.
