Special board meeting to consider firing Pete Arredondo is canceled

A special school board meeting that was scheduled for Saturday morning to terminate Pete Arredondo, Uvalde schools police chief, has been canceled.

The Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District made the announcement on Friday.

"In conformity with due process requirements, and at the request of his attorney, the meeting to consider the termination of Chief Arredondo will be held at a later date which has yet to be determined," the statement from UISD said.

Until then, Arredondo "shall be on unpaid administrative leave," the statement said.
