Texas Department of Public Safety is moving to fire a Texas Ranger who had been suspended over his response to the school shooting, a source tells CNN.
The source told CNN that Ranger Christopher Ryan Kindell was notified Friday of DPS’s intention to terminate him and that the process gives Kindell several days to respond. DPS officials declined to comment. CNN has reached out to Kindell for comment but has not yet received a response. Kindell would be the second member of DPS to be fired over the botched response at Robb Elementary.
The Texas Rangers are a special group within the DPS who face a higher standard for recruitment and are expected “to handle any given situation without definite instructions from his commanding officer or higher authority,” as stated on the agency’s website. Sources have told CNN that Kindell arrived at the school at about noon on May 24 and focused on supplying updates to his bosses.
