ST. LOUIS – Two people were killed Monday morning in a shooting at Central Visual and Performing Arts High School in south St. Louis.
Officers from the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department were called to respond to this incident at 9:10 a.m. Interim St. Louis Police Chief Lieutenant Colonel Michael Sack said that officers arrived at the high school located at the corner of Kingshighway and Arsenal just minutes later. They immediately made entry into the school. As kids were filing out of the school, students told officers that the suspect was armed with a long gun.
Officers then heard gun fire and ran toward it. They found the shooter, and officers and the shooter exchanged gun fire. The shooter was struck and taken to the hospital. He is approximately 20 years old and has since died. He has not yet been identified. No officers were injured.
In total, eight people were injured in this incident, including one adult woman who was pronounced dead from gun shots at a hospital, as well as a teen girl who was also shot and killed. The others injured suffered a variety of shrapnel and gunshot wounds. They are being treated at local hospitals.
