Nashville School Shooting: Heroes and Mourning

The quick-thinking actions of teachers who locked down classrooms helped save lives during the deadly mass shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville, according to a former police officer who provided active shooter training at the school. Six people were killed in the Monday morning school shooting, including three 9-year-old students, a substitute teacher, the head of the school, and a custodian. The shooter fired multiple rounds into several classrooms but didn’t hit any students inside the classrooms. The shooter is believed to have had weapons training and had arrived at the school heavily armed and prepared for a confrontation with law enforcement.
