This image released by the Metro Nashville Police Department on their Twitter account on March 27, 2023, shows one of the three guns used by the shooter and recovered at the scene along with significant ammunition at the Covenant School building at the Covenant Presbyterian Church, in Nashville, Tennessee.
Earlier, Nashville police chief John Drake told reporters that the shooter, Audrey Hale, had been receiving treatment for an “emotional disorder,“ and that Hale’s parents believed their child -- who lived at home with them -- had bought and later resold a single gun. Multiple gunshots are heard as officers close in on a sun-filled atrium, where the assailant was shot dead.
A rally that had been scheduled for Friday supporting queer and trans youth in Nashville was cancelled “both for the safety of the youth and to focus on the healing of the Nashville community,“ according to an email sent by organizers. President Joe Biden warned that gun violence was “ripping the soul of this nation,“ and urged Congress to reinstate the national assault rifle ban, which existed from 1994 to 2004.
