Wisconsin School Shooting Suspect Identified As 15-Year-Old Girl [VIDEO]

Sad news broke on Monday that there was a school shooting at a private Christian school in Madison, Wisconsin, that left six wounded, one teacher dead as well as the suspected shooter.  Reportedly the suspected shooter was a 15 year old girl.

Natalie Rupnow was identified as the shooter who opened fire inside a study hall inside Abundant Life Christian School, Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes said. Responding officers found Rupnow with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. She died on the way to a hospital.

Just before 11 a.m. on Monday a second-grade student called 911 reporting the shooting.   Six wounded in the shooting, two were students in critical condition. A teacher and three students were also hospitalized with less serious injuries, and two of them were later released.

According to Madison Chief of Police Shon F. Barnes:

“What we do know is this child was obviously very troubled,” “There’s usually some type of warning signs that we all may have missed and so we have to understand that we have to come together as a community. We have to wrap our arms around our children and understand what’s going on in their lives.”

The that serves 200 students, had a resource officer, did not have metal detectors, but did have cameras and other security protocols.

Let’s keep the families and community affected by this tragedy this holiday season uplifted in our prayers.
