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."
