A gunman opened fire at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday, killing 14 children and a teacher, in the deadliest shooting at an elementary school since the devastating attack at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., in 2012.
Police officers are believed to have killed the gunman, Gov. Greg Abbott said at a news conference. Mr. Abbott later said that the gunman had been a student at a nearby high school.
The assailant was identified by state police as Salvador Ramos, 18. The suspect abandoned his vehicle and entered Robb Elementary School with a handgun and possibly a rifle, Mr. Abbott said.
