Madison Police Department Police Chief Shon Barnes announced Monday evening during a press conference that officials have identified 15-year-old Natalie Rupnow, who went by the name “Samantha,” as the shooter of Abundant Life Christian school.

On Monday morning Madison, Wis. authorities received a call at 10:57 a.m. from a second grade student at the Christian school reporting a shooting. In the fourth press conference of the night, Barnes revealed that authorities had officially identified Rupnow as the suspect, stating the 15-year-old had suffered from a self-inflicted gunshot wound and was pronounced dead on the way to the hospital.

“The shooter has now been identified as 15-year-old Natalie Rupnow, who went by the name Samantha. She was a student at the school, and evidence suggests she died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound,” Barnes said. “The official cause of death will be released by the Dane County Medical Examiner pending the conclusion of their examination. She was pronounced deceased while in transport to a local hospital. A teacher and a teenage student were pronounced dead at the scene at that school.”

WATCH:

Officials confirmed that, in addition to the deceased teacher and student, six other students and one teacher were injured and taken to hospitals near the area. At the time, two students remained in critical condition, while the teacher and three students were treated for non-threatening injuries. Two of the injured were released and discharged. Two survivors were considered to be in stable condition.

“We are still working to determine a motive. Detectives have talked to her family members this evening as well as conduct a search of the shooter’s home here in Madison,” Barnes said.

Barnes said that an alleged manifesto of Rupnow’s that’s been circulating online has not been confirmed by officials. With school being monitored by police overnight, Barnes requested that the community not hold a vigil at the time.

The victims have yet to be identified.
