School Shooting Survivor Sues AI Gun Detection Firm Omnilert After System Failed to Flag Weapon at Antioch High School

A student injured in the January 2025 Antioch High School shooting filed suit in Davidson County Circuit Court against Omnilert, whose AI visual gun-detection system was live during the attack but did not flag the handgun before shots were fired. The complaint alleges Omnilert marketed the system as capable of detecting weapons 'before a shot is fired' with 'unparalleled reliability' while failing to disclose material limitations around camera placement, angle, lighting, and weapon visibility. The case is being watched as a test of AI safety marketing liability for public-safety products.
