PORTUGUESE TRANSLATION:
Chamada de atirador ativo saiu esta manhã para 911 às 10:39 da manhã. Resposta da polícia primeiro oficial na cena foi às 10:45, um tempo de resposta de seis minutos.
Deste atirador temos 20 mortes confirmadas e temos 26 feridos.
As idades e sexos de todas essas pessoas feridas e mortas são numerosas nas faixas etárias.
A situação, desnecessário dizer, é horrível.
A cena do crime está sendo assistida pelo FBI; várias agências de aplicação da lei responderam a esta cena, o Departamento do Xerife, DPS, Patrulha de Fronteira, todos que carregam um distintivo nesta cidade praticamente apareceram para nessa cena particular, mas desnecessário dizer que a cena é horrível infelizmente por causa da natureza da situação.
A cena estará ?montada? por um longo período, infelizmente, os falecidos permanecerão no local até que a cena seja processada corretamente para fins probatórios a serem reunidos para posterior julgamento.
O estado do Texas será a principal agência ou entidade processando esse indivíduo em particular.
Tem um nexo neste momento para um crime de ódio que o FBI estará investigando
com outras autoridades federais. Agora estamos olhando para potenciais acusações de homicídio para este indivíduo.
Eu não vou lhes dar o nome dele agora.
Ele é um homem branco de 21 anos de idade de Allen, Texas.
