First lady Jill Biden attended Wednesday night’s candlelight vigil in Nashville, Tennessee, to honor and mourn the six victims killed in the Covenant School shooting.
“Honored that FLOTUS will attend this evening’s vigil as Nashville mourns and remembers the lives tragically taken from us,” Nashville Mayor John Cooper tweeted earlier in the day.
The vigil at Public Square Park, which began at 5:30 p.m. local time, came two days after the massacre that left three adults and three 9-year-old children dead. The assailant, identified as former Covenant School student Audrey Hale, was fatally shot by police.
