Hand sanitizer, fist bumps and gunfire: Key moments in the Uvalde school shooting video

Criticism of the law enforcement response in Uvalde became sharper Tuesday after footage from the school’s hallway, published by the Austin American-Statesman and KVUE-TV, revealed shocking inaction by officers — including a break for hand sanitizer, a fist bump and a hug between officers. The video, edited to remove children’s screams, is the first to be shown to the public, defying the Uvalde County district attorney’s orders to contain it. State Rep. Dustin Burrows, R-Lubbock, had vowed to release the footage Sunday afternoon after providing families and the Uvalde community an opportunity to see it first, leading many to express outrage over the leak.

11:30 a.m.: The video begins with a view from outside the school. Two people on the left side of the screen walk toward the gunman after he crashes his truck. 11:32 a.m.: A view from outside the building is shown while audio from a 911 call is played. The teacher who made the call says, “The kids are running. Oh my God. Get in your rooms, get in your rooms.” 11:33 a.m.: A camera mounted on the ceiling shows the gunman enter the school through a side door. He is holding an assault-style rifle and wearing what appears to be a vest or backpack. He walks toward the camera before turning right and heading toward Classrooms 111 and 112. A child enters the frame from the left and walks toward the intersection of hallways. The gunman is several yards away, and the child pauses to peer around the corner. The child turns and runs when shots are fired. At the end of the hallway, the gunman fires randomly into a doorway. Two bursts of gunfire are heard. He then turns left and walks into a classroom. More than a dozen bursts of gunfire are heard over the course of two minutes.
