A 17-year-old shooter killed himself after fatally wounding a female student in a shooting at a Nashville high school on Wednesday, police said.
Two others who were wounded in the shooting at Antioch High School are being treated at a hospital, Don Aaron, spokesperson for the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, said during a news conference.
The school has about 2,000 students and is located in a neighborhood of Nashville about 16 kilometers southeast of downtown.
School officials are asking parents not to go to the high school to pick up their children. They were asked to go to a nearby hospital instead. Students will be bused there as they are released from the school by police.
School shootings have been top of mind in Nashville. In March 2023, a shooter killed three 9-year-olds and three adults at a private Christian elementary school in the city, The Covenant School.
