Chief Daniel Rodriguez was taking pre-scheduled vacation time in Phoenix during the Robb Elementary School shooting on May 24, 2022.
The resignation came days after an investigator contracted by the City of Uvalde found that police acted in"good faith" while responding to the shooting.
Rodriguez did not say why he’s resigning, but did say he was “moving onto a new chapter” in his resignation letter. Cross addressed the council, which did not answer pointed questions about Uvalde's investigative report. Uvalde Mayor Cody Smith did say that the council would need more time to assess the report following Rodriguez's resignation.
