there were 11 students in his classroom alone. none of them survived. and today, 9-year-old ellie garcia was laid to rest. she would have just turned 10. this account tonight is harrowing, it is difficult, and once again, it is a portrait of what those children were going through as they called for help. tonight here, the amy robach interview and our matt gutman leading us off from texas. >> guy with a rifle! >> reporter: tonight, for the first time, we're hearing chilling details from a teacher who was wounded but survived the carnage in room 111, one those two adjacent classrooms at robb ele elementary. arnulfo reyes was watching a movie with 11 of his students when shots rang out, bullets hitting the building. he spoke with our amy robach. >> the kids started asking out loud, mr. reyes, who is going on? and i said, "i don't know what's going on, but let's go ahead and get under the table. get under the table and act like you're asleep." as they were doing that and i

was gathering them under the table and told them to act like they were going to sleep is about the time when i turned around and saw him standing there. >> reporter: almost immediately, the gunman opening fire. two bullets hit reyes, one through his arm and lung. another bullet in his back. he couldn't move. the shoot ore then turning that long gun on the students. they hear officers outside the classroom. reyes says he heard a child in the next classroom pleading for police to help. by then, he thinks officers had retreated down the hallway. >> one of the students from the next door classroom was saying, "officer, we're in here. we're in here." but they had already left. and then -- he got up from behind my desk and he walked over there and he shot over there again. >> reporter: the gunman going back into room 112 firing more shots.

the teacher says he heard officers again, telling the gunman through the door they want him to come out, to talk, that they don't want to hurt a minute later, silence, until border patrol finally breached the door. while the horror was unfolding, parents were outside begging for police to save the children. >> you know that there are kids right? they're little kids. they don't know how to defend themselves. >> reporter: and at least two students from those connected classrooms were calling 911. >> is anybody inside of the building? child is advising he is in the room full of victims. full of victims at this moment. >> eight to nine children. >> reporter: when it was over, 11 of reyes' students were dead. and today, another victim laid to rest, 9-year-old eliahna "ellie" garcia. >> she was very happy and very outgoing and loved to dance and sing and play sports. she was big into family. enjoyed being with the family. >> the funerals continue tonight. and matt joins now, reporting

from the scene again for us this evening. and matt, this interview, the teacher talking with amy, so powerful. obviously hearing about that child who was pleading with police that they could hear on the other side of the wall to help them. we also heard from this teacher something we reported before here, that police hat one point tried to talk to the shooter? >> reporter: another survivor, david, just 10 years old, told us she heard law enforcement come down the hallway, maybe up to the door, and ask the shooter to come out, to put down his weapon, but that he refused and that teacher telling us always that he had to play dead for 77 minutes. there were long periods of silence, ultimately punctuated by law enforcement bursting into that classroom and shooting dead that gunman. david? >> all right, matt gutman leading us off here tonight, thank you. and tomorrow morning on "good morning america," much more from that teacher. his message to the police officers outside that classroom door and to the parents of his students. amy's full interview on "gma," it's part of our reporting all day long tomorrow across all of

our broadcasts and platforms. a closer look at guns in america. and tomorrow night here, our report on "world news tonight" on ar-15-style weapons and how many states can you get them at just the age of 18 as authorities say that texas shooter did, the day after he turned 18, buying his weapon. and the debate, of course, why not raise the age from 18 to 21? this weekend, by the way, was the deadliest weekend in the u.s. from shootings this year alone. more than a dozen mass shootings this weekend in which four or more people were shot. at least 17 people were killed 69 wounded this weekend alone. a suspect in custody tonight after a mass shooting in philadelphia. three people dead, nearly a dozen shot and wounded. and in chat knew ga, three people killed, 14 wounded. tonight, there is new from capitol hill. will law makers do anything this time? tonight, the senator who says there could be news, movement on this, by this week. rachel scott on the hill. >> reporter: terror on the streets of philadelphia this weekend.

crowds racing to escape gunfire three killed, 11 others shot and wounded. and tonight, late word a suspect is under arrest. part of a spasm of gun violence across the country. more than a dozen mass shootings this weekend alone. >> multiple shots fired, multiple vehicles fleeing the scene. >> reporter: in chattanooga, tennessee, 14 shot, three killed after authorities say multiple shooters opened fire at a nightclub early sunday. back in washington, growing momentum on capitol hill to reach a deal on gun reform. will you reach a deal by the end of the week? >> my goal is to reach an agreement by the end of the week. we've got more republicans and democrats sitting together than ever before, since sandy hook. what we're talking about is substantial. it will save lives. while i'm certainly prepared to fail, i'm more hopeful for success than ever before. >> reporter: a bipartisan group of senators is under pressure to reach a compromise by the end of week. on the table, strengthening

background checks, incentives for states to enact red flag laws, funding for school security, and mental health. and president biden hoping lawmakers would go even further and bring back the assault weapons ban. or at the very least, rage the purchasing age from 18 to 21, which has the support of many democrats, including senator joe manchin. >> we know two things that would have stopped this, if the age was 21 and also if there was red flag laws. >> reporter: but the vast majority of republicans say that's a nonstarter. would you support that? >> not likely. >> reporter: tonight, republican senator john cornyn, that texas senator on the scene the day after the shooting in uvalde, calling for targeted reform. >> i will not settle on inadequate or down right harmful legislation for the sake of doing something. we can agree something needs to be done, but what that something is is much harder to achieve. and to targeted reforms, i think, is the way to get to where we need to go. >> reporter: new york governor kathy hochul today signed a slew

of gun control bills into law, including a ban on sales of semiautomatic rifles to anyone under the age of 21. that type of law might have stopped the 18-year-old suspects in both the buffalo and uvalde mass shootings from legally purchasing ar-15-style rifles. >> well, that point you make, rachel, is the source of so much debate there in washington. and as you just reported, in new york state today, gun safety reform, these were the images, new york's governor signing bills into law, including, as you heard the report there, raising the age to purchase assault rifles from 18 to 21. and rachel, i guess the question is, as this country waits and watches, will lawmakers in washington, what will they do, if anything, is there any movement in the meantime from other states, other than new york state tonight? >> reporter: well, david, some states are not waiting for congress to act. the democratic governors in new jersey and delaware are urging their state lawmakers rais legal limit tomiauto fr 2

but i can tell you on a federal level, i talked to many republicans today who told me they are just not onboard with that. as for these bipartisan discussions, i'm told that group of senators will be meeting again tonight in hopes of striking a deal, david. >> i know you're going to stay on this all week for us, rachel, thank you. overseas tonight, and to the war in ukraine. vladimir putin issuing a new warning to the u.s. after the u.s. and uk promised new rocket systems to ukraine that can strike targets 50 miles away. abc's james longman in ukraine tonight. >> reporter: tonight, britain joining the u.s. in sending new medium-range weapons systems to ukraine. vladimir putin warning that if even longer-range missiles are shipped from the west, moscow will retaliate by hitting targets, quote, that we have not yet struck. kyiv targeted just hours after that threat was broadcast, the first strike on the capital in weeks. and ukraine claiming a significant shift in the east, saying they've mounted a successful counterattack near

severodonetsk. russia pushed to the eastern outskirts of the city, but the battle is raging. the fight here is so fierce because it's the last major city not under russian occupation in this part of the donbas, and so strategically important for ukraine that president zelenskyy made a risky visit to front line troops there to thank them for their service and sacrifice. the u.s., david, is intensifying its efforts to punish vladimir putin and his supporters. u.s. prosecutors are now moving to seize two planes thought to belong to powerful russian of hi jar roman abrom vich, one said to be worth $350 million. david? >> james, thank you. in the meantime, back here at home tonight, and to the new and chilling details after authorities say a retired wisconsin judge was targeted and killed. abc news has now learned the alleged gunman had once appeared in the judge's courtroom. and authorities now say the suspect had a hut list in his car, including several other public figures. here's abc's alex perez tonight.
