HOUSTON, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- The Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District (CISD) on Friday suspended the entire school police force partly as a result of parents' protest over the fallout from police response to the May 24 mass school shooting that killed 19 children and two teachers in the small city of the U.S. state of Texas.
"The District has made the decision to suspend all activities of the Uvalde CISD Police Department for a period of time," a statement from the Uvalde CISD said. The department now includes four officers and one security guard.
