police allege they were fired at during the pursuit first. however, walker was unarmed during the foot chase. a curfew in downtown akron that had been imposed during protests over walker's killing has now been lifted. well, there is new and startling information regarding the mass shooting at a grade school in uvalde, texas, which left 21 people dead, most of them children who were set to graduate days later. cbs' janet shamlian reports on a series of missed opportunities and lapses in judgment. >> reporter: tonight never before disclosed information. a uvalde police officer had the gunman in his sights outside before the shooter entered the school and asked a supervisor for permission to shoot, but never received it. >> there is no requirement for that officer to ask for permission to shoot. he felt that that person was a threat to him, to the officer or to others, the texas penal code allows them to use deadly force to try to stop that person.

>> reporter: pete blair is the executive director of the alert training center at texas state university which issued the report it says at the request of the governor and the department of public safety. the report also found the classroom door where the shooter was barricaded was unlocked. school police chief pete arredondo previously claimed it was locked and that he had spent time looking for keys. once officers finally entered the classroom more than an hour after the shooting started, they were no better equipped than they had been up to that point. >> look at it as a dad, as a parent. >> reporter: anger and frustration is growing in uvalde over a lack of answers. the community last week confronted the mayor. a texas legislative committee is investigating and has been interviewing law enforcement and other witnesses for weeks. its report is expected soon. janet shamlian, cbs news, houston. overseas now to the uk where british prime minister boris johnson is on the brink of a

political downfall. there have been more than 40 members of his government to resign. cbs' ramy inocencio has more on what's next. . >> reporter: this is uk prime minister boris johnson's own party turning against him. >> hi, boys. >> hi. >> today i ask him to do the honorable thing. >> to put the interests of the nation before his own interests. >> reporter: a stream of resignations started by top cabinet members. >> enough is enough. i believe that point is now. >> reporter: on top of criticism from the head of the opposition labor party. >> the only way the country can get the fresh start it deserves is by getting rid of the lot of them. >> reporter: johnson, looking very much alone under the barrage, but defiantly insisting he will stay on. >> the job of a prime minister in difficult circumstances is to keep going, and that's what i'm going to do. >> reporter: not for long, says political economist steven mccabe. >> essentially survivability is

zero. >> reporter: what happened in the past 24 hours that prompted where we are now? >> it's a bit sort of like the dam, it starts to leak and all of the sudden there is a tidal wave. i think this has been building up and people are being sent out to say things that are not true. >> reporter: boris johnson has now apologized for pointing this man, chris pinscher to a high government role. the prime minister claimed he forgot about sexual assault allegations from 2019. critics say he lied. the proverbial last straw after his government's partygate scandal in which members of his administration held a series of parties while the rest of the uk was under mandatory covid lockdown. >> there seems to be a past that can't be trusted. boris johnson is not a man of his word and there is no integrity. >> reporter: so tonight boris johnson is still prime minister and still very defiant, but a committee may change the rules to allow for a fresh vote of no confidence. that rules change may come as soon as this monday and ultimately could push him out. jericka? >> ramy inocencio for us in
