A 15-year-old student shot and killed a fellow student and a teacher at a Wisconsin religious school before taking her own life. Authorities say the shooter was in contact with a 20-year-old man in California who was planning an attack on a government building.
The shooter who killed a student and teacher at a religious school in Wisconsin brought two guns to the school and was in contact with a man in California whom authorities say was planning to attack a government building, according to authorities and court documents that became public Wednesday.
Police were still investigating why the 15-year-old student at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison shot and killed a fellow student and teacher on Monday before shooting herself, Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes said. Two other students who were shot remained in critical condition on Wednesday.'We may never know what she was thinking that day, but we’ll do our best to try to add or give as much information to our public as possible,' Barnes said.A California judge, meanwhile, issued a restraining order Tuesday under California’s gun red flag law against a 20-year-old Carlsbad man. The order requires the man to turn his guns and ammunition into police within 48 hours unless an officer asks for them sooner because he poses an immediate danger to himself and others.COMPLETE COVERAGE: Follow the latest from FOX6 News on the Madison school shootingAccording to the order, the man told FBI agents that he had been messaging Natalie Rupnow, the Wisconsin shooter, about attacking a government building with a gun and explosives. The order doesn't say what building he had targeted or when he planned to launch his attack. It also doesn't detail his interactions with Rupnow except to state that the man was plotting a mass shooting with her.The student who was killed in Monday's school shooting was identified in an obituary released Wednesday as Rubi Patricia Vergara, 14, of Madison. She was a freshman at the school and 'an avid reader, loved art, singing and playing keyboard in the family worship band,' according to the obituary. The Associated Press' attempts to reach the girl's family by phone and email on Wednesday evening were unsuccessfu
