Dear listener, this episode is about the recent mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

There are no graphic descriptions, but do please take care before listening.

Khoswe George Garsat is 83 years old.

On Tuesday, May 24th, he was getting ready for his lunch break on the west side of Uvalde

Texas.

It was around noon.

I wanted to convene the store to buy any spaper.

And coming out the parking lot, I saw police cars, shares department cars, moving out

at a high rate of speed.

I bet they were doing 100 miles an hour.

George thought they were chasing a smuggler.

He says that had happened recently in town, so he didn't worry.

George has lived in Uvalde for almost 70 years.

He went to school here, then he became a teacher.

For 12 years, he was also the mayor of Uvalde.

He knows his city, so he wasn't too worried about the police cars.

He went home and took a nap.

About an hour later, George woke up, and that's when he learned about the news.

I had to TV on, and Uvalde, a mass shooter, and barricaded in school.

And I couldn't believe it.

I was dreaming for a while, because something like that had never occurred here in Uvalde.

George says there were ambulance sirens blaring and helicopters circling nonstop.
