The Nashville Metro Police Department confirmed an active shooter at Antioch High School on Wednesday.
According to MNPD, two students were shot by another student, who then sustained a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The shooting happened in the cafeteria and the situation is now reportedly contained.
In a statement, the Metro Nashville Public Schools said:
“Antioch High School is on a lockdown due to shots being fired inside the school building. Metro Police are on the scene. The person responsible for shooting is no longer a threat. We will be gathering students in the auditorium and will provide information on reunification as soon as possible."
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has also responded to the shooting.
