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

The Uvalde Police Department and the Uvalde Unbiased School District police force are not cooperating with the Texas Division of Public Security's investigation into the bloodbath at Robb Elementary School and the state's evaluation of the legislation enforcement response, a number of law enforcement sources inform ABC News.

The Uvalde police chief and a spokesperson for the Uvalde Independent College District did not instantly reply to requests for remark from ABC News.

Based on sources, the decision to cease cooperating occurred quickly after the director of DPS, Col. Steven McCraw, held a news convention Friday during which he said the delayed police entry into the classroom was "the unsuitable choice" and contrary to protocol.

Reached by ABC Information, a spokesperson for the Texas Division of Public Security said, "The Uvalde Police Division and Uvalde CISD Police have been cooperating with investigators. The chief of the Uvalde CISD Police supplied an preliminary interview but has not responded to a request for a follow-up interview with the Texas Rangers that was made two days in the past."

Final Tuesday's attack, one of many worst college shootings in U.S. history, left 19 kids and two adults useless.
