WI school shooting: At least 3 dead, 6 hurt [RAW]

Madison police give an update on a school shooting at the Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin, leaving at least three people dead, including the suspected shooter.

What we know: Police responded at 10:57 a.m. to the Abundant Life Christian School for an active shooter, where they found multiple victims suffering from gunshot wounds.

Three people have died — a teacher, a student and the suspected shooter — and six others were hurt, police said. Injuries ranged from minor to life-threatening.

The suspected shooter was a teenage student at the school, police said. Police located the suspected shooter dead in the building.

"To be honest with you, I'm feeling a little dismayed now," Chief Shon F. Barnes of the Madison Police Department said Monday afternoon. "So close to Christmas, every child, every person in that building is a victim and will be a victim forever. And these types of trauma don't just go away. And we need to figure out and try to piece together what exactly happened."

Local Perspective: The school is a private Christian school that is not under the authority of the public school system. Abundant Life Christian School is a K-12 school with about 390 students.

SSM Health Dean Medical Group East on Stoughton Road is being used as the family reunification center, the Dane County Sheriff's Office says. Meanwhile, roads are blocked off along 4900 Buckeye Road. Drivers and people are asked to avoid the area.

The school has been cleared, and authorities are working at reunification, which could take some time, police said.

What We Don't Know: Police did not reveal who the victims were, other than saying the suspected shooter was a juvenile.

This remains an active and ongoing investigation.

Police recently practiced this

Dig Deeper: Madison's police chief indicated his officers were trained for a situation like this school shooting as recently as two weeks ago. Those officers are trained to "stop the killing, to stop the dying and find who is responsible." Officers did not fire their weapons.
