Uvalde shooting: Photos show armed police waiting in school hallway

The first images showing armed police waiting in a corridor during last month’s school shooting in Uvalde, Texas have emerged.

Police arrived earlier in the attack and with more firepower than previously reported, according to US media who have seen investigative documents.

The images show police holding rifles and riot shields.
