Texas Governor Abbott says he will sign a bill that prevents cities from defunding police

Texas Governor Greg Abbott vowed he would sign legislation that would make it harder for communities to defund the police after a shooting Saturday in Austin. The Republican governor retweeted the Austin Police Association president's information about how long it took officers to respond to the the shooting, adding: "This is what defunding the police looks like."

Austin Police Association President Kenneth Casaday tweeted that a call about the shooting came around 5:35 a.m. on Sunday morning. "No units available city wide for 12 minutes," he said. He said Austin police arrived on the scene 16 minutes after the call came out and one victim was critically injured after being shot in the head. Police say there appeared to be a disturbance between two drivers, and that it is possible that a bystander was shot in the head, according to CBS Austin. No arrests have been made.
