The Nashville Police Department released bodycamera footage of the Covenant School shooting response, showing the moment officers shot and killed shooter Audrey Elizabeth Hale, a 28-year-old transgender former student who is accused of killing six people Monday.

The video, captured via officer Michael Collazo’s bodycamera, showed officers rushing through the school before running up to a second-floor room before they spotted the suspect and opened fire. Officers climb stairs to the second floor and enter a lobby area. “Move in,” an officer yells. Then a barrage of gunfire is heard. “Get your hands away from the gun,” an officer yells twice. Then the shooter is shown motionless on the floor.
