Uvalde police, college district no longer cooperating with Texas probe of shooting: Sources

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

The Uvalde police chief and a spokesperson for the Uvalde Independent School District did not instantly respond to requests for comment from ABC Information.

In accordance with sources, the decision to cease cooperating occurred soon after the director of DPS, Col. Steven McCraw, held a news convention Friday throughout which he said the delayed police entry into the classroom was "the incorrect determination" and contrary to protocol.
