One suspect, identified as 25-year-old native of Sudan, Emanuel Kidega Samson, was arrested after getting into an altercation with a bystander, and charged with first-degree murder. Around one week after the mass shooting, the suspect said that the attack was revenge for the 2015 Charleston church shooting. ShootingThe gunman carried two handguns, and after fatally shooting Melanie Crow outside, he entered the church from the rear, according to police. He then walked through the church silently, shooting six more people.[1] At this point, according to police, the gunman was confronted by an usher, 22-year-old Robert Engle, whom he pistol-whipped. During the ensuing struggle, Samson accidentally shot himself in the chest. Engle ran to his car to get his own gun and pointed it at the wounded Samson until police arrived to arrest him. Engle was called a "hero" by police.[2][3] Around 50 parishioners were in the church at the time of the shooting,[4] which was reported at 11:15 a.m. local time as church services were ending.[3] VictimsThe deceased woman was identified as 38-year-old Melanie Crow. She was first shot in the face, then suffered additional gunshot wounds to the back when she attempted to flee the gunman. Six other people aged between 60 and 83 were injured by gunfire; their injuries were non-life-threatening.[1][4][5] SuspectThe suspect, Emanuel Kidega Samson, was a 25-year-old Sudanese native residing legally in the United States, having arrived as a child in 1996. He was allegedly carrying two handguns, a 9mm and a .40-caliber, and was wearing a ski mask at the time of the attack.[1][4][6] Samson had been licensed to work as an unarmed security guard from 2014-16, although his license was expired and he had been seeking its reinstatement.[7] Samson is a former member of the Burnette Chapel Church.[13] A review of Samson's Facebook page by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) found sympathies and interests to black supremacist figures and groups like the New Black Panther Party and the Nation of Islam, as well as an affinity for conspiracy theories.[8] In the days leading up to the shooting, he posted "several cryptic messages" on his Facebook page.[1] Samson had had two domestic disputes with his girlfriend in Murfreesboro in January and February earlier that year, but was not arrested. Three months earlier, he reportedly told his father that he was about to commit suicide, which prompted a police response.[9] Immediately after the shooting, Samson was later charged with first-degree murder.[10] In a police interview, Samson suggested he was hearing voices and had a vision of the Burnette Chapel Church.[5] Samson was scheduled to appear in Davidson County General Sessions court on September 27, and is being held at a county jail without bond. He allegedly had additional weapons in his vehicle,[1] as well as a note that referenced the Charleston church shooting of 2015.[5] On October 6, it was reported that a preliminary hearing had been set for October 23, 2017.[11] Aftermath and reactionsNashville Mayor Megan Barry said, "This is a terrible tragedy for our city. My heart aches for the family and friends of the deceased as well as for the wounded victims and their loved ones."[12] Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam said he was "praying for the victims and committed to supporting the Antioch community in the aftermath of this tragedy." The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Department of Justice have both launched civil rights investigations.[13][14] See also
