Nineteen children and two adults, including one teacher, were killed on Tuesday after a teenage gunman opened fire in a primary school in rural Texas.

The 18-year-old shooter, Salvador Ramos, entered Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, about 85 miles west of San Antonio, on Tuesday morning with a handgun and a rifle.

CNN reported on Tuesday that before entering the school the shooter also shot and injured his grandmother.
