What reportedly prompted 15-year-old Natalie Rupnow to shoot in a classroom at the city of Madison’s Abundant Life Christian School was not specified by Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes.
The incident on Monday also injured six persons. Rupnow took his own life after being shot.
Investigators are urging anyone who knew the suspect to come forward with information, according to Chief Barnes.
He stated during a press conference on Tuesday that “finding a motive is our top priority.” “But at this time it appears that the motive was a combination of factors.”
“We are asking anyone who knew her or who may have insights into her feelings leading up to yesterday to please contact the Madison-area Crime Stoppers.”
