Authorities in Madison, Wisconsin are reporting multiple injuries at a K-12 private school.
The shooting occurred at Abundant Life Christian School around 11 a.m. Monday. The shooter is “down,” according to Madison police. Several students are reportedly among the wounded, who have been transported to area hospitals. Police said the school has been cleared and there is no further threat.
“This remains an active and ongoing investigation,” the Madison PD said in a statement. “More information will be released as it is available. We currently need people to avoid the area.”
A nearby high school, a middle school, and an elementary school were placed on a secure hold in the aftermath of the Abundant Life shooting.
Abundant Life , which is located on Madison’s east side and has roughly 400 students in all, was founded in 1978 “as a community Christian school with the vision of providing academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment for families in the greater Dane County area,” the school’s website tells visitors. “Our reliance on the Bible as the inspired Word of God and the foundation for all that we teach is integral to who we are.”
