Nashville School Shooting: Bodycam Footage Show How US Cops Took Down Attacker

Video released on Tuesday showed Nashville police officers firing multiple bullets into the suspected attacker in Monday's school shooting minutes after storming into the private Christian grade school with rifles and conducting a room-by-room search. The six minutes of footage, taken from body-worn cameras from two of the responding officers, showed police clearing one classroom after another on the first floor before venturing up the stairs to the second floor. Shots can be heard seconds before the suspect comes into view and drops to the floor after apparently being shot. One officer fires additional rounds into the assailant, who appears to be moving on the ground as another officer repeatedly yells, "Get your hands away from the gun!" Three children were among the six killed in the attack. Watch!
