The head of the Covenant School who was shot and killed along with five others on Monday was praised for going “straight for the shooter” during the mass shooting incident.
Nashville City Councilman Russ Pulley revealed that Katherine Koonce was in a meeting when shooter Audrey Hale, 28, entered the building and started firing at around 10:13 a.m. In the shooting, Koonce, three 9-year-old children, and two other adults were killed by Haley, who was shot dead minutes later by responding Nashville Police officers.
