GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — 21 KILLED IN TEXAS SCHOOL SHOOTING: 21 people, including 19 children, were killed Tuesday at Robb Elementary School in Texas.

Police say 18-year-old Salvador Ramos shot his grandmother just before entering the school and opening fire. He was wearing body armor at the time of the shooting, and was reportedly killed by police responding to the scene.

It is unclear at this time how many people, in addition to those killed, were injured in the shooting.

This is the deadliest school shooting in Texas history.

Flags are at half staff this morning and calls for action grow louder among students, parents and lawmakers.

Later, around 10:30 p.m., a driver reported hearing gunshots in the 6400 block of Division Avenue in Byron Township.
