The school is a Pre K - 6 school. The Fire Department said they have multiple patients. The article linked above is live updating every few minutes. For those reading this, keep in mind that we will not all be reading the same version. Edits (with time stamps): 11:31 AM CDT — WSMV reports 3 students are dead 11:43 AM CDT — MNP says the shooter died *after* being engaged by police. Per AP News <https://apnews.com/article/5da45b469ccb6c9533bbddf20c1bfe16>, “It was not immediately clear whether the shooter died by suicide or was shot by police.” (It will of course take some time for these details to be sorted out, but it’s important that people know that in this incident, police say they did engage the shooter and did not wait outside.) 12:24 PM CDT — 3 students and 3 adults are dead per WSMV 12:32 PM CDT — AP News reports the suspect is female and she was killed by police, link above 12:44 PM CDT — WSMV clarifying that 3 students, 3 adults, and shooter dead. “The shooter entered the school through a side entrance with two assault-style rifles and a handgun” … “The age of the shooter is uncertain but she appeared to be a teenager” 1:21 PM CDT — MNPD identified the shooter as a 28-year-old Nashville woman. <https://twitter.com/MNPDNashville/status/1640411645947301889?s=20> They have not yet disclosed the name of the shooter. 2:26 PM CDT — Authorities believe the shooter was a former student, per AP News 4:59 CDT — The victims and shooter have been publicly identified. The victims have been identified as Evelyn Dieckhaus, Hallie Scruggs, and William Kinney, all age 9, Cynthia Peak, age 61, Katherine Koonce, age 60, and Mike Hill, age 61. I will not be naming the shooter in this comment. She doesn’t deserve to be remembered. She has been named by WSMV and other outlets. She is confirmed to be a former student and a 28-year-old woman. 5:35 CDT — MNPD has confirmed that the shooter “identified as transgender and had no previous criminal record, according to the chief.” Per NBC News <https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna76876> 11:55 CDT — Per the Tennessean <https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/crime/2023/03/27/nashville-school-shooting-latest-updates-covenant-school-suspect/70053691007/>, “Police identified the shooting suspect by his name at birth, Audrey Hale, and did not provide another name. He was a transgender man who used male pronouns, according to police. Authorities initially identified him as a woman.” I didn’t go through to change the pronouns in this thread in order to preserve each update as they were reported. The above update at 11:55 CDT, will be my final update in this thread. KR IRS 28323 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
