MADISON, Wisconsin-A teacher and teenage student were killed and six students were injured in a shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin on Monday.

The 15-year-old suspect was a teenage student at the school, and is also dead, police said. The suspect used a handgun, a 9mm pistol, and took her own life after shooting the others, authorities said.

A motive is not clear, Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes said at a news conference.

Just before 11 a.m., police responded to a call of an active shooter at the K-12 school at 4901 E. Buckeye Road. Officers found a teen and teacher dead, as well as the female shooter, and recovered a handgun, authorities said. 

The tragic shooting comes on the heels of the 12th anniversary of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut on Dec 14, 2012 that claimed the lives of 20 adults and six children.

Congress passed a bipartisan gun safety bill over two years ago, which President Joe Biden signed into law in June 2022. The law enhances background checks for gun purchasers ages 18-21, makes obtaining firearms through straw purchases or trafficking a federal offense, and clarifies the definition of a federally licensed firearm dealer.

In a statement, President Biden called the school shooting in Madison, Wisconsin "shocking and unconscionable," and demanded action from Congress.

Some 205 school shootings have been recorded in the United States in 2024 alone.
