Seven people were killed, including three children, after a transgender
woman opened fire inside a private Christian elementary school in
Nashville on Monday.

Police said they received a call at 10:13 a.m. about an active shooter,
later identified as Audrey Hale, at the Covenant School with police
rushing to the scene to clear the halls.

At the scene, police heard gunshots on the second floor and rushed to a
lobby-type area where they came across the 28-year-old, who was strapped
with two assault rifles and a handgun.

The shooter had killed three students and three staffers before she was
fatally struck by responding officers at 10:27 a.m.

When police searched the shooter’s belongings and home they found detailed
maps of the school and a manifesto. They claimed in a press conference
Monday evening Hale also targetted another school but aborted those plans
because it had too much security.

Hale had no police record or record of mental health problems. However,
when asked if Hale’s identity as a trans person played a role in the
deadly shooting, Metro Nashville Chief of Police John Drake said: “There
is some theory to that, we’re investigating all leads.”

Police had initially thought the killer was a teenager, before later
confirming her age. Authorities later said the shooter — who used he/him
pronouns in some online profiles and also went by the name Aiden — was a
former student at the school.

A vehicle found near The Covenant School is being investigated by the
police and helped them to establish the shooter’s identity, according to
Drake.

He also said the school had an active shooter protocol, and that his force
was looking into how the shooter was able to access the school.

“All doors were locked, to our understanding and how exactly she got in,
is still under investigation,” Drake said.

Officials noted that the only other person hurt at the scene was an
officer who cut his hand on broken glass.

“[Three] pediatric patients were transported to Monroe Carell Jr.
Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, all having suffered gunshot wounds. All
three were pronounced dead after arrival,” John Howser, chief
communications officer for Vanderbilt University Medical Center, said in a
statement.

The Nashville police said in a tweet: “An active shooter event has taken
place at Covenant School, Covenant Presbyterian Church, on Burton Hills
Dr.

“The shooter was engaged by MNPD and is dead.

“Student reunification with parents is at Woodmont Baptist Church.”

The Vanderbilt University Medical Center had been put on alert to take in
the injured being transported from the school, who were reported dead at
the hospital.

The FBI and Nashville branch of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms
and Explosives have also deployed agents to assist in investigating the
attack.

The Covenant School, which teaches students in pre-K through 6th grade,
has about 200 students enrolled, according to its website.

The school was founded in 2001 as a ministry of Covenant Presbyterian
Church and its annual tuition fees range between $7,250 for three-day pre-
school and $16,500 for pupils in kindergarten through sixth grade.

The school focuses its curriculum on biblical theology, where students
take classes about the bible along with standard education courses, with
the school motto being “Shepherding Hearts, Empowering Minds, Celebrating
Childhood”.

The school is located in the affluent Green Hills neighborhood just south
of Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe, a beloved spot for musicians and
songwriters.

Speaking at a Small Business Administration event Monday afternoon,
President Biden said he had been briefed on the situation and called the
shooting “heartbreaking.”

“We have to do more to stop gun violence,” Biden said. “It’s ripping our
communities apart. It’s ripping at the soul of this nation.”

The president said he remains committed to gun reform efforts and called
on Congress to pass his proposed assault weapons ban.

Nashville Councilman Freddie O’Connell said in a statement: “Nashville
has, sadly, today joined the communities that have experienced a school
shooting. For now, my focus is turning to supporting the impacted families
and revisiting our efforts to prevent these horrifying scenarios.”

Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee said he was closely monitoring the situation,
adding that the state Highway Patrol and Department of Safety officers are
assisting first responders.

“As we continue to respond, please join us in praying for the school,
congregation & Nashville community,” Lee said.

US Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) of Nashville added: “Devastated and
heartbroken about the tragic news at Covenant School. I’m grateful to law
enforcement and first responders for their heroic actions. I am monitoring
the situation closely, and my office is in contact with local officials &
available to anyone needing assistance.”
