One year after Uvalde shooting, investigation of police response continues: U.S. media


By Xia Lin

NEW YORK, May 23 (Xinhua) -- A criminal investigation in the U.S. state of Texas over the hesitant police response to the Robb Elementary School shooting is still ongoing as Wednesday marks one year since a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers inside a fourth-grade classroom in Uvalde, reported The Associated Press on Monday.

"The continuing probe underlines the lasting fallout over Texas' deadliest school shooting and how the days after the attack were marred by authorities giving inaccurate and conflicting accounts about efforts made to stop a teenage gunman armed with an AR-style rifle," said the report.
