UVALDE, Texas: Before he opened fire in a Texas elementary school - killing 19 children - teenager Salvador Ramos first shot his grandmother, officials said.

A mugshot of Ramos that circulated in local media showed a young man with brown hair, looking in front of him with an expressionless gaze. A 66-year-old woman was admitted to a hospital in San Antonio in critical condition following the shooting, according to healthcare officials, who did not provide any further details.

He then crashed near a ditch outside Robb Elementary School, got out, and headed for the school, where law enforcement officers tried, but failed, to stop him."And then from there, that's when he went on and entered several classrooms and started shooting his firearm," Estrada said on CNN.
