Antioch, a growing and diverse area of Nashville, has endured other prominent shootings in recent years. A 2017 fatal shooting at Burnette Chapel Church of Christ killed one woman and wounded seven people. And in 2018, a shooter killed four people at a Waffle House.

Police said the suspect sustained a self-inflicted gunshot wound and the school district said Antioch High School is on lockdown.

Police said a male student shot two people at the high school on Wednesday morning before turning the gun on himself.
