The Metro Nashville Police Department released body-camera footage from police officers who responded to Monday’s shooting at Covenant School.
The footage is from the body-worn cameras of officers Rex Engelbert and Michael Collazo, who police said fatally shot the attacker on Monday at 10:27 a.m. local time. The videos show the officers go into the school and immediately enter several rooms to look for the shooter.
Responding to gunfire on the second floor, the officers rush up the stairs. Officer Engelbert, armed with an assault-style rifle, rounds a corner and fires multiple times at a person near a large window. The video shows the suspect drop to the ground.
Collazo then pushes forward and appears to shoot the person on the ground four times with a handgun, yelling, “Stop moving!” The officers approach the person, move a gun away and radio, “Suspect down! Suspect down!”
