The US Department of Justice said Sunday it will conduct a critical incident review of the law enforcement response to the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas on May 24.
“The goal of the review is to provide an independent account of law enforcement actions and responses that day, and to identify lessons learned and best practices to help first responders prepare for and respond to active shooter events,” DOJ spokesman Anthony Coley said in a statement.
