The suspect in the Nashville school shooting is a 28-year-old woman from the city, police have said. She's reported to have been a former student at the school.
She is said to have used two assault-type rifles and a handgun. The suspect, who died after being engaged by police, is yet to be identified.
Three adults and three children were killed in the shooting.
Only one officer was injured, from cut glass. Two officers from a team of five engaged the suspect and shot her, police said.
"We do not know who she is at this juncture, we are trying to identify her," Nashville Police Public Affairs Director Don Aaron said during a press briefing.
The 28-year-old was initially described as being "in her teens".
"This is a church that operates a private school. There were no Metro Police personnel assigned to that school of any kind," he added. "There is video from the school that we are viewing now to try and understand what happened," he said.
