JUST IN: The Texas Department of Public Safety has been ordered by a state district judge to initiate the release of public records concerning law enforcement's handling of the Uvalde school shooting.

Over a dozen news organizations sued DPS last year, accusing it of unlawfully withholding the records related to the May shooting at Robb Elementary School. The 261st Civil District Court Judge Daniella DeSeta Lyttle granted a motion for summary judgment on behalf of the Tribune, its partner ProPublica and other local, state and national newsrooms. The records will not be immediately available.
