(MADISON, WI) — Details are still emerging about the course of the Madison, Wisconsin, school shooting that left three people — among them the 15-year-old female shooter — dead and several others injured on Monday.<\/p>\n

Police said that Natalie Rupnow, who went by Samantha, used a handgun to kill one teacher and one fellow student in the shooting.<\/p>\n

Rupnow died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound before officers reached the school, police said. Officers did not fire their weapons.<\/p>\n

Two students sustained life-threatening injuries and are in critical condition, while one teacher and two other students were treated for non-life-threatening injuries.<\/p>\n

Police said in a Monday briefing that the shooting was contained to “a classroom in a study hall full of students from multiple grade levels.”<\/p>\n

Police have not yet suggested any motive for the attack nor said whether they believe the victims were specifically targeted.<\/p>\n

The suspect’s father reportedly spoke with police at one of their facilities shortly after the incident. Police are “trying to determine what he knew or may have not known about what happened today, but again, he lost someone as well,” Barnes said.<\/p>\n

“The parents are fully cooperating, we have no reason to believe that they have committed a crime at this time,” Barnes said.<\/p>\n

A second-grader made the 911 call, Barnes said. “Let that soak in for a minute,” Barnes added. “A second-grade student called 911 at 10:57 a.m. to report a shooting at school.”<\/p>\n

President Joe Biden called the incident “shocking and unconscionable” in a statement Monday evening that called on Congress to act, “now.”<\/p>\n

He insisted that they pass “commonsense” gun safety laws including universal background checks, a national red flag law and a ban on both assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.<\/p>\n

“It is unacceptable that we are unable to protect our children from this scourge of gun violence,” the statement said, adding, “We cannot continue to accept it as normal.”<\/p>\n

Biden also mentioned his administration’s efforts to combat the gun violence epidemic in the United States, including the implementation of the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, while stating that more needed to be done and offering his prayers to those affected in Madison.<\/p>\n

Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers said in a statement, “There are no words to describe the devastation and heartbreak we feel,” calling the shooting a “gut-wrenching tragedy.”<\/p>\n

Evers said he and his wife are “praying for the families and loved ones of those whose lives were so senselessly taken and for the educators, staff, and the entire Abundant Life school community.”<\/p>\n

“It is unthinkable that a kid or an educator might wake up and go to school one morning and never come home,” he said. “This should never happen, and I will never accept this as a foregone reality or stop working to change it.”<\/p>\n
