Uvalde’s embattled school police chief faces becoming the first officer to lose his job over the hesitant response by hundreds of heavily armed law enforcement personnel during the May massacre at Robb Elementary School.

The Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District (CISD) was set to make a decision on Pete Arredondo’s future on Wednesday – three months to the day after a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers in one of the deadliest classroom attacks in US history.
