Texas Governor Greg Abbott has been accused by a Texas state senator of withholding details about Saturday's mass shooting at a mall.
He represents Uvalde, where 19 children and two teachers were shot to death at an elementary school last year.
On Saturday afternoon, a gunman opened fire at a crowded mall in Allen, a Dallas suburb, before a police officer killed him.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott speaks during a May 25, 2022, press conference at Uvalde High School, where 19 children and two teachers died in a shooting.
On Monday, he said he expected the public will get more information in "the coming days" about Saturday's mall shooting in the city of Allen.
He was referring to the Christian school shooting in Tennessee in March, in which six people, including three children, died.
Abbott later said he initially shared the inaccurate information because he was "misled," adding that he was "absolutely livid about that.". »
