The suspect in a shooting at a private Christian school in Nashville on Monday is dead, officials said.
The Nashville Fire Department said on Twitter there are “multiple patients” but their conditions were not clear. It was not known whether they were staff, teachers or students.
The shooting happened at The Covenant School, where students walked to safety holding hands to a nearby church to be reunited with their parents.
