Nashville shooter, who was ‘under doctor’s care for emotional disorder,’ used 3 guns, police say

LA Times  

Body-camera footage shows police confronting Audrey Hale, the shooter who killed three 9-year-old students and three staffers in a Nashville school. At a news conference Tuesday, Metropolitan Nashville Police Chief John Drake said authorities learned through interviews with the assailant’s parents that the shooter had legally purchased seven firearms from five local gun stores. The parents said the shooter, whom authorities identified as 28-year-old former student Audrey Hale, was “under doctor’s care for emotional disorder,” Drake said. Kristin Mumford, a public affairs officer with the Metro Nashville Police Department, said the attacker was “assigned female at birth” but the agency was “also aware of social media profiles in which the shooter used male pronouns.” A LinkedIn profile under the shooter’s name that has since been taken down listed he/him pronouns. He commended officers’ response, saying it was “really quick.” “They heard gunfire and immediately ran to that and then took care of this awful situation,” Drake said.
