A shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin, has resulted in three deaths and six injuries. A 15-year-old student opened fire, leading to the tragic loss of three lives, including her own.
Two of the deceased were confirmed dead at the scene, while the third passed away on the way to the hospital.
Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes provided the latest updates in a press conference, confirming that two of the injured students are in critical condition, while a teacher and three other students have non-life-threatening injuries. Two of the injured victims have already been released from the hospital.
Police have identified the shooter as Natalie Rupnow, also known as Samantha. Authorities report that after the rampage, she turned the weapon on herself. The motive behind the attack is still unknown, and investigations are ongoing.
All surviving students have been reunited with their parents, and teachers who stayed behind to ensure the safety of the students are in the process of being reunited with their families as well. Madison police have reassured the public that all necessary safety measures have been followed.
School shootings carried out by females are extremely rare. According to statistics, only about 3% of mass shootings in the U.S. are committed by women. This tragedy has once again sparked national discussions on school safety and gun control.
A helpline has been set up for families affected by the incident, and anyone in need of support can reach out using the provided contact information.
As Madison mourns this heartbreaking loss, investigations continue, and further updates will be provided as they become available.
