A Uvalde, Texas, mom who defied police during the school shooting at Robb Elementary School in order to rescue her children said she is now targeted by Uvalde police.
Nineteen children and two adults were killed in the school on May 24. The police response to the shooting has been a hot-button issue since the incident, in which over an hour passed from the time the shooting started until gunman Salvador Ramos was killed.
“The other night we were exercising and we had a cop parked at the corner like, flickering us with his headlights,” Angeli Rose Gomez said. according to KABB-TV.

She has since put her sons in a place where they live apart from her “just so my sons don’t feel like they have to watch cops passing by, stopping, parking.”

Gomez went to the school after she heard about the shooting and was frustrated with the police response.
The mother told the Wall Street Journal in an interview that she decided to get to the school because she saw police outside the school “doing nothing.”
“They were just standing outside the fence,” she said. “They weren’t going in there or running anywhere.”
She said parents were handcuffed and pepper-sprayed.
