The Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) issued an update into the investigation of a mass shooting at a Nashville private school on Monday. 28-year-old Audrey Hale of Nashville targeted The Covenant School on Monday, killing three 9-year-old children, a substitute teacher, custodian, and the head of the school. Police have previously reported Hale was found with an Assault Rifle, 9mm rifle, and handgun when police engaged and opened fire on Hale, ending the attack.
