This is the moment a Texas police officer breaks down in tears after learning his 10-year-old daughter was killed in an elementary school shooting. Felix Rubio was pictured hugging his wife, Kimberly, after the heartbreaking news that their daughter, Lexi, was among the 19 victims.
Just hours before the girl's loss, the family had posted a picture of her for a commendation certificate she had received. Smiling, she had no idea that this would be the last picture with her parents.
"We told him that we love him and that we would pick him up after school. Little did we know that this would be goodbye", her mother wrote on social networks. The father of the 10-year-old looked distracted as he said a few words to "CNN":
"I wish she wasn't a number. A lot more. No one should have to go through anything like this again. We weren't supposed to go through this, but we do. Plenty of weapons. I don't want my daughter's name to be just another name."
The father and sheriff could not hide his pain as he tried to comfort his wife. The parents of the victims have also expressed themselves in a similar way to them, as "my little love is now flying high with the angels”And“some of us will not hug or kiss their little ones tonight".
The attack in Uvalde is the 212th in the USA, while not even half of the year has passed yet./tvklan.al
