   Surveillance footage shows that police never tried to open a   
   door to two classrooms at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde in   
   the 77 minutes between the time a gunman entered the rooms and   
   massacred 21 people and officers finally stormed in and killed   
   him, according to a law enforcement source close to the   
   investigation.   
      
   Investigators believe the 18-year-old gunman who killed 19   
   children and two teachers at the school on May 24 could not have   
   locked the door to the connected classrooms from the inside,   
   according to the source.   
      
   On ExpressNews.com: Minute-by-minute reconstruction of Uvalde   
   school shooting   
      
   All classroom doors at Robb Elementary are designed to lock   
   automatically when they are closed so that the only way to enter   
   from the outside is with a key, the source said. Police might   
   have assumed the door was locked, but the latest evidence   
   suggests it may have been open the whole time, possibly due to a   
   malfunction, the source said.   
      
   The surveillance footage indicates gunman Salvador Ramos, 18,   
   was able to open the door to classroom 111 and enter with an   
   assault-style rifle, the source said.   
      
   Another door led to classroom 112.   
      
   On HoustonChronicle.com: Remember the lives lost in Uvalde   
   school massacre   
      
   Ramos entered Robb Elementary at 11:33 a.m. that day through an   
   exterior door that a teacher had pulled shut but that didn’t   
   lock automatically as it was supposed to, indicating another   
   malfunction in door locks at the school.   
      
   Police finally opened the door to classroom 111 and killed Ramos   
   at 12:50 p.m. Whether the door was unlocked all along remains   
   under investigation.   
      
   Regardless, officers had access the entire time to a “halligan”   
   — a crowbar-like tool that could have opened the door to the   
   classrooms even if it was locked, the source said.   
      
   On HoustonChronicle.com: At a cemetery in Uvalde, an everlasting   
   grief   
      
   Two minutes after Ramos entered the building, three Uvalde   
   police officers chased him inside. Footage shows that Ramos   
   fired rounds inside classrooms 111 and 112, briefly exited into   
   the hallway and then re-entered through the door, the source   
   said.   
      
   Ramos then shot at the officers through the closed door, grazing   
   two of them with shrapnel. The officers retreated to wait for   
   backup and heavy tactical equipment rather than force their way   
   into the classrooms.   
      
   Pedro “Pete” Arredondo, the Uvalde school district police chief   
   and the on-scene incident commander, has said he spent more than   
   an hour in the hallway of the school. He told the Texas Tribune   
   that he called for tactical gear, a sniper and keys to get   
   inside. He said he held officers back from the door to the   
   classrooms for 40 minutes to avoid gunfire.   
      
   When a custodian brought a large key ring, Arredondo said he   
   tried dozens of the keys but none worked.   
      
   But Arredondo was not trying those keys in the door to   
   classrooms 111 and 112, where Ramos was holed up, according to   
   the law enforcement source. Rather, he was trying to locate a   
   master key by using the various keys on doors to other   
   classrooms nearby, the source and the Texas Tribune article said.   
      
   While Arredondo waited for a tactical team to arrive, children   
   and teachers inside the classrooms called 911 at least seven   
   times with desperate pleas for help. One of the two teachers who   
   died, Eva Mireles, called her husband by cellphone after she was   
   wounded and lay dying.   
      
   The massacre occurred two days before the start of summer break,   
   on the same day as a just-completed awards ceremony for the 3rd   
   and 4th-graders at Robb Elementary.   
      
   Days after the massacre, Steven McCraw, director of the Texas   
   Department of Public Safety, said at a news conference that   
   “each door can lock from the inside” and that when Ramos went   
   in, “he locked the door.” That information was preliminary, the   
   source said, and further investigation by the Texas Rangers has   
   yielded new revelations about the door.
