At least two Robb Elementary School students are still missing hours after a horrific shooting at the school left 22 people dead, including 19 children, two teachers and the suspected gunman.

Annabelle Guadalupe Rodriguez, 10, has not made contact with her family in the hours after suspected gunman Salvador Ramos, a student of Uvalde High School, carried out his shooting spree, her father told Fox News.

The father of the 10-year-old girl provided her photo in the hopes she could be located and returned home.
