Shooter was female, possibly a teen, with two “assault rifles” and handgun

Two adults also killed.

Very quick response by LE.

Horrible, but curious. Has anyone ever heard of a female mass shooter?

The media just stated the last female mass shooter was Brenda Spencer in the 1979. She apparently shot across the street at the school because she hated Mondays, and didn’t want to go to school.

Now they saying she was 28yrs old...my prediction is some blue-haired devil worshiper targeting Christians.

If it turns out to be anything like this, I would be suspect of lunatic liberals targeting conservative's children in hopes to change the political winds.

No matter what it is, it is evil and I am angry there aren't armed men in every school; we pay to defend Ukraine, why not our kids?

Yep. There's been a few, but not as common for sure.

Pretty good response. Looks like she was eliminated about 15” after the first 911 call

Now saying she was a former student there. 28yo???

Good on the LE for having a plan other than "wait".
