NEW: A report says nearly 400 law enforcement officials rushed to the Uvalde elementary school, but “systemic failures” created a chaotic scene that lasted more than an hour before the gunman who took 21 lives was finally confronted and killed.

The report noted that many of the hundreds of law enforcement responders who rushed to the school were better trained and equipped than the school district police — which the head of the Texas Department of Public Safety, the state police force, previously faulted for not going into the room sooner.

Family members of the victims in Uvalde received copies of the report Sunday before it was released to the public. Flowers that had been piled high in the city’s central square had been removed as of Sunday, leaving a few stuffed animal maps scattered around the fountains alongside photos of some of the children who were killed.

“Arredondo’s search for a key consumed his attention and wasted precious time, delaying the breach of the classrooms," the report read.
