WASHINGTON (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 26th May, 2022) The gunman in the school shooting in the city of Uvalde had neither mental health history nor criminal record, Texas Governor Greg Abbott said on Wednesday.

"The gunman was 18-year- old and reportedly a high school dropout," Abbott said. "Reportedly, there has been no criminal history identified yet. He may have had a juvenile record, but that is yet to be determined. There was no known mental health history of the gunman."
