to The Texas Tribune detailing what unfolded in the hallway on the day of the shooting and defending his role.This week, new details emerged about the timeline of events as media outlets including the Tribune reported on surveillance video from the hallways that day and a transcript of officers’ body cameras. In a public hearing to lawmakers Tuesday, Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw provided more details about the sequence of events and missed opportunities.
The surveillance shows two groups of police officers approaching the doors to the classrooms early on in the shooting — one group from the north of the hallway and the other, which includes Arredondo, from the south. That group inserted the key into room 111 and entered the room at 12:50 p.m. A flurry of gunshots can be heard in the video, and then the team exits the room and indicates the gunman is dead.Arredondo said he believed he was one of the first officers on the scene and asked police dispatch for tactical gear, snipers, keys and an extrication tool to help officers respond to a gunman who had barricaded himself inside a classroom and had a high-powered rifle.
McCraw said Tuesday that officers with rifles arrived within minutes of the shooting’s start and could have aided an entry into the room. That decision left him with no direct communication to other officers responding to the scene. Instead, Arredondo used his cellphone to make calls to police dispatch and communicate what he was seeing.Arredondo told the Tribune he did not remember requesting a police radio once he was in the hallway.
By 12:01 p.m., a DPS officer started suggesting that the situation required officers to go into the classroom.“It sounds like a hostage rescue situation,” the DPS officer said. “Sounds like a UC [undercover] rescue. They should probably go in.”
