Melissa Joan Hart says she helped kids get to safety amid Nashville school shooting
The Sabrina The Teenage Witch actor, who lives in Nashville, aided "a class of kindergartners across a busy highway" near where the shooting occurred
Actor Melissa Joan Hart, who is known for starring in Sabrina The Teenage Witch, says she helped get students away from the scene of the school shooting that happened at Nashville’s The Covenant School on Monday, which led to the deaths of three children and three adults.
“My kids go to school right next to a school where there was a shooting today,” said Hart in an emotional video posted via her Instagram on Tuesday. While her children’s school wasn’t in session that day, Hart said that she and her husband, Mark Wilkerson, were there for a parent-teacher conference, leading them to be nearby to help aid the students “escape the shooter situation” at The Covenant School.
“We helped a class of kindergartners across a busy highway that were climbing out of the woods, that were trying to escape the shooter situation at their school,” said Hart.
She added, “We helped all these tiny little…kids cross the road and get their teachers over there, and we helped a mom reunite with her children.”
