Sandy Hook Report: Police Waited 5 Minutes to Enter School

It took police about 4 minutes after the first 911 call at 9:35 a.m. Dec. 14, 2012, to arrive at the scene of Sandy Hook Elementary School, and Adam Lanza is believed to have killed himself about a minute after they arrived on scene.

Police waited another five minutes before entering the building, where they found 20 children and six educators dead from Lanza’s gunfire and two more educators injured.
