The GD discussion on this was getting cluttered w/ psychobabble posts. Since this is the LE forum I figured we could have a more productive discussion here.
If you haven’t been paying attention to the news: https://www.foxnews.com/us/nashville...s-shooter-dead
@TC215, you mentioned the officers took fire from the 2nd story on arrival in the other thread. Any further info you at liberty to post?

The FoxNews article seems to have most of the publicly-available info.
Can’t really post any further right now. I will say that Metro normally posts body cam video on their social media very quickly. Obviously, since this incident involves the murder of young children, it’s a little different, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some video gets released in the coming days.
Understood. Thanks.Originally Posted by TC215

And literally as I was posting this, Metro started releasing surveillance video. It’s available on their Facebook page.
The officers who ended the killing:
The guns used by the suspect:

The marking remind me of the New Zealand mosque shooter.
Body cam video released.
Yes, there's plenty to critique as far as tactics, but:
- they made entry
- they began clearing (no driving force)
- when the driving force presented itself (gunshots), they moved to it immediately
Strong work from MNPD.
Rifle guy had zero hesitation, outstanding!
He's a real leader, no doubt about it.
Did themselves proud. (I'm glad they released the video so quickly.)
There's nothing civil about this war.
Outstanding job by MNPD, especially Officer Englebert! I don't see how one could realistically expect much more.
The school seems to have a very good, and well-executed, active shooter protocol as well which likely saved a lot of lives.
