"Uvalde Police Chief Resigns Amid Controversy Over Shooting Response"

Uvalde police chief Daniel Rodriguez resigned following a controversial report that cleared officers who responded to the Robb Elementary School shooting, despite their lack of sufficient active shooter training. The report's findings contradicted previous audits faulting law enforcement at all levels for the catastrophic response to the shooting, which resulted in the deaths of 19 children and two teachers. Rodriguez's resignation comes amid public outrage over the report and criticism from City Council members. Assistant police chief Homer Delgado has been named interim chief, and a grand jury is investigating the delayed response to determine potential criminal charges against officials.
