Hale had opened fire on students and faculty at the Christian school, leading to the death of three children and three adults.<\/p>\n<p>Englebert, a four-year veteran of the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, and Collazo, a nine-year veteran, were identified as the two officers who killed Hale on Monday, a day after the attack. According to police, a group of officers had rushed to the school to respond to the situation and evacuate the building. Upon their arrival, they encountered Hale in a common area on the second floor of the building, and the two officers began firing, leading to Hale&#8217;s death.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Hale fired a number of rounds inside the Covenant Church\/School building.
