Sheneca Cowart faces multiple felony gun charges following the incident at The Academy of McCrory Lane on Thursday.
A Tennessee teacher has been arrested after she allegedly threatened to shoot a colleague in the preschool where she worked, police said.
Sheneca Cowart was charged with assault, threat of mass violence at a school and two counts of carrying a weapon onto school property following the Thursday incident at The Academy of McCrory Lane in Nashville.
Authorities took Cowart into custody after witnesses said she threatened to "retrieve a firearm and made threats against another teacher and the school after an argument," the Metro Nashville Police Department said.
Staff members alleged 29-year-old Cowart threatened to “shoot up” the preschool and that she keeps a gun “on her,” according to NBC News affiliate WSMV.
Another teacher claimed to overhear Cowart say “when I start shooting, you better run,” prompting the preschool to go into lockdown, WSMV reported.
Arm the teachers to stop pupils. But the pupils need to be armed to stop teachers. Then you need to arm the lunch ladies to bring balance.
And install metal detectors. You can’t enter school unarmed.
Always two lunch ladies, there are. A master and an apprentice.
Do NOT fuck with the lunch ladies.
Lunch ladies must be handing food out from the cafeteria machine gun nest. Principal’s office needs an AA gun for all around protection.
We already had metal detectors in our schools
