“I’m looking for my daughter, but I also know what wing she’s in, so I start clearing all the classes in her wing,” he later told the media.
Jacob Alborado, who works as a Customs and Border Patrol (CPB) agent and lives in Uvalde Texas, got a chilling set of texts from his wife, a teacher at the now-famous Robb Elementary. He rushed to the scene and aided in the rescue of several rooms full of children, including his own daughter, Jayda.
"There's an active shooter," Trisha, Alborado's wife, texted him, followed by "Help," and then a quick "I love you." Alborado was at the barber's at the time, just about to get a trim. The barber lent him his shotgun which was there to protect the store, and he was off.

It appears that, in searching for his daughter, Alborado, managed to successfully and safely evacuate a whole wing of the school of children and their teachers. "I’m looking for my daughter, but I also know what wing she’s in, so I start clearing all the classes in her wing," he later told the media.
"They were just all hysterical, of course," he added.
