Monday's shooting at a private Christian school in Nashville unfolded over approximately 15 minutes as a shooter opened fire inside, killing six people, before police arrived and fatally shot the suspect.
Three children and three adults were killed in the shooting at The Covenant School.
Ever since a May 2022 attack inside a classroom in Uvalde, Texas, police response times to school shootings have come under greater scrutiny. In that shooting, 70 minutes passed before law enforcement stormed the classroom.
In Nashville, police said about eight minutes passed from the initial call to when officers arrived at the scene. Within about four minutes after police arrived on campus, the shooter, Audrey Hale, 28, was taken down. Authorities have not yet determined the shooter's motive but said Hale, a former student at the school, did not target specific victims.
Here's a look at what is known about the shooting and the Nashville police response:
9:53 a.m.
Hale arrived by car in the expansive parking lot Monday, according to a time stamp on edited school surveillance video released by police.
