The first day of testimony in the trial of a former police officer accused of failing to protect students who died in the Uvalde, Texas, elementary school massacre turned emotional right away.

One of the first officers on the scene at the 2022 school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, is about to stand trial.

Trials for two Uvalde, Texas school police officers facing charges over the law enforcement response to the 2022 Robb Elementary school shooting have been delayed.

SAN ANTONIO A 47-year-old Texas man was cited for disorderly conduct Thursday after he allegedly smacked the hand of a San Antonio-area official who was trying to persuade him to put on a face covering, officials said. Nico LaHood, Toller's lawyer, said his client was not yelling at the cashier and never touched Wolff. Toller's confrontation with Wolff, the county's top executive, came after the judge ordered businesses to require face coverings to slow the spread of COVID-19. Security camera footage of the Wednesday incident shows Toller swat a proffered business card out of Wolff's hand as the two men are at the store's checkout. Texas has reported more than 17,000 new cases in the last three days with a record high 5,996 on Thursday.
