According to Luz Moreno-Lozano, a community reporter from Statesman, community members of Uvalde who attended the Texas House conference on Sunday were "frustrated" in connection with the release of the report on the tragic shooting that happened in May.

"They say the report is complicated to read and was not provided in Spanish," Moreno-Lozano underscored.

Texas: Uvalde Mayor Claims It Will Take Two Weeks for Spanish Translation

Meanwhile, contributing editor to Law Crime News and Mediate, Sarah Rumpf, said that Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin got a question about the report being translated in English alone, but the mayor responded that the translation of the report from English to Spanish would take at least two weeks.

Rumpf then shared a Google-translated version of the report into Spanish from a friend and claimed that her Spanish proficiency is "very basic." She also welcomed those fluent in the language to improve the document for the families.

Several reactors on Twitter also shared their suggestions.

One user claimed that the Texas House can "easily get" 14 translators and divide the report among them to get the translations done within a day.

Another user shared that Uvalde Mayor McLaughlin "needs to go."

Texas School Shooting Update: Uvalde Report Released on Sunday

On Sunday, the Texas House committee released its preliminary findings regarding the Uvalde shooting in Robb Elementary School.

Findings of the Texas House committee suggested that the police who responded at school had "systemic failures and egregious poor decision making."

The finding also noted that there was a breakdown of communication between the responders. Moreso, there was confusion about who was the commanding officer at the scene.

The report also discovered that the police officers prioritized their safety over the safety of the children inside the classroom with the shooter.

The report noted that almost 400 law enforcement agents responded when the shooter, Salvador Ramos, entered Robb Elementary School and killed 19 children and two teachers.

On Sunday, Mayor McLaughlin announced the suspension of Uvalde Police Chief Lt. Mariano Pargas. Pargas was known to be the highest-ranking officer who responded at the scene of the tragedy.
