  1. As a fellow Texan, I am devastated by the shooting of a church in the small community of Sutherland Springs, 15mi east of San Antonio (population of 642 - however no census info is available). It is an unincorporated city with no official fire department or police force. This is another disgusting act of gun violence that will continue to plague the US until our politicians do something.
  2. Anyway... here is a list of Texas News sources and law enforcement information, as well as major news sources available via Twitter. I don't know the differences between all of these lists, however they vary in difference by how often they've been updated and what sources the users or organizations have chosen to include. Sometimes there is no description, but I have viewed them previously for breaking coverage in Texas.
  3. Two local San Antonio news stations are the CBS affiliate @KENS5 and you can watch a live feed on their website here:
  4. Also there is the FOX affiliate @KABBFOX29 and their live feed is here:

  12. This is my curated list of breaking news sources that I have tried to vet to have good news that is up to date and breaking: https://twitter.com/pogue25/lists/news
  13. By the way, from what I have seen, no major Texas law enforcement organizations are tweeting about this, as this happened on the weekend and most of them tweet the information from their offices. News organizations & their journalists are the ones updating information about this incident.
  14. News & Wire Agencies (via @ninatypewriter): https://twitter.com/ninatypewriter/lists/news-wires-agencies
