Uvalde police, school district no longer cooperating with Texas probe of taking pictures: Sources

The Uvalde Police Department and the Uvalde Impartial School District police power are no longer cooperating with the Texas Department of Public Safety's investigation into the massacre at Robb Elementary Faculty and the state's assessment of the regulation enforcement response, a number of law enforcement sources inform ABC News.

The Uvalde police chief and a spokesperson for the Uvalde Independent School District didn't instantly reply to requests for comment from ABC Information.

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