According to police, the shooter who killed six people at a school in Nashville, Tennessee, on Monday legally purchased seven guns and hid them at home.

The suspect’s parents, according to the investigation, believed the 28-year-old should not own weapons and were unaware that the weapons were hidden in their home.

Six individuals, including three kids age nine, were killed in the assault at the Agreement School.

According to police, the suspect was receiving “doctor’s care for an emotional disorder.”

There are no laws in Tennessee that permit police to seize firearms from violent suspects.

Even though there are no so-called “red flag” laws, the police said they would still have tried to get the weapons back if they had been told the suspect could have been dangerous.

William Kinney, Hallie Scruggs, and Evelyn Dieckhaus were the students killed in the attack.

Three grown-up workers at the secretly run Christian school likewise passed on: Mike Hill, 61, Katherine Koonce, 60, and Cynthia Peak, 61.

The parents of Audrey Hale, the suspect who was killed by police less than 15 minutes after the attack began, have been contacted by authorities.

Hale, a former student at the school who identified as transgender, was armed with three guns, one of which was a semi-automatic rifle.

The assault occurred after the executioner directed reconnaissance of the premises, drew maps and composed what police portrayed as a “statement”.
According to a police spokesperson, the assailant did not specifically target anyone, but rather “this school, this church building.”

Hale’s parents believed that the suspect had only one gun, which had been sold.

According to Nashville Police Chief John Drake on Tuesday, they were unaware that the suspect “had been hiding several weapons within the house” and that the suspect “should not own weapons.”

Five establishments in the city sold the weapons legally.

Chief Drake stated that the killer “was under care – doctor’s care – for an emotional disorder,” but he did not provide any additional details.

In the event that there had been reports of self-destructive or savage propensities, he added, police would have tried to seize the weapons.

He continued, “But as it stands, we had absolutely no idea who this person was or even if [the suspect] existed.”
On Monday, at 10:13 local time (13:13 GMT), the first call about the incident was made to the police.

The suspect took a Honda Fit to the school and entered the building by firing through one of the locked doors.

The shooter then wanders the school’s deserted corridors, passing a room marked “Children’s Ministry” at one point in the video that Nashville police later released. The video shows the shooter opening fire to break the glass panes on the front doors.

The suspect can be seen in the CCTV footage with what appears to be a protective vest on, one hand on an assault-style rifle, and the other weapon is clearly visible hanging from the left hip.
Before moving to the second floor of the building, the suspect opened fire on the ground floor.

The shooter opened fire on them from the second floor as police cars arrived, hitting one vehicle in the windshield.

Chief Drake stated, “We believe there has been some training to be able to shoot from a higher level.”

He said that the suspect had stood away from the glass so that police wouldn’t have to worry about him.

One official was harmed by broken glass. Police surged inside and shot the suspect dead at 10:24, said Boss Drake.

President Joe Biden on Tuesday called for Congress to pass new firearm control regulation.

He stated, “We as a nation owe these families more than our prayers.” We must act for them.”

US Head legal officer Merrick Wreath was asked during a Senate hearing in Washington DC whether the assault will be researched as a disdain wrongdoing focusing on Christians.

He stated that agents were still trying to determine a motive and that it was too early to say.

According to Gun Violence Archive, a non-profit that keeps track of data on gun violence, the attack was the 131st mass shooting in the United States thus far this year.

A database maintained by the Associated Press indicates that since the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School, there have been 15 mass shootings at schools or universities in the United States.
