Uvalde Police Chief Homer Delgado posted a press release this morning on the Uvalde Police Department’s Facebook page stating that the Robb Elementary School memorial site located on the corner of Geraldine Street and Old Carrizo Road was vandalized.
Chief Delgado informed the Uvalde Hesperian the incident likely occurred between the hours of 11PM on Wednesday April 30th and 6 AM Thursday Morning, May 1st.
“Several family members came out this morning and made repairs before they went to work,” Delgado said.
“We are asking that anyone who has cameras in the area to check and see if they captured anyone walking in the area last night.” He said.
The Uvalde Hesperian visited the site this morning following Police Chief Delgado’s Uvalde Police Department post and the site appeared to look normal except for the discolored places on the concrete where some of the crosses were originally positioned. Following the May 24th, 2022 tragedy at Robb Elementary School, the Texas Department of Public Safety has posted patrol units and officers at the campus.
Amy Franco, one of the teachers that was at Robb Elementary School the day of the May 24th tragedy issued the following statement to the Uvalde Hesperian:
“Yes, it is so disturbing that coming up on the 3-year mark something so disrespectful like this happened. Here it is the first day of May, we the survivors, the families dread this month and this is what we wake up to.”
