The White House led reactions in a shocked America with a call for tightening gun control in the US after a 28-year-old opened fire at a private Christian elementary school in Nashville, killing six, including three children.
“While you’ve been in this room, I don’t know whether you’ve been on your phones, but we just learned about another shooting in Tennessee – a school shooting – and I am truly without words,” first lady Jill Biden said at an event in Washington as reports of the shooting at the Covenant School began circulating.
