A man who shot his way into Uta Halee Academy is dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to authorities at the scene.

The man has been identified as 37-year-old Matthew Lesley.

The incident was directed at a staff member possibly in an estranged relationship with the gunman, according to a Douglas County Sheriff's Office statement. That staff member was not at the scene at the time of the shooting.

Court records show Lesley and his wife were in court on Thursday, the day before the shooting. She obtained a protection order against her husband and claimed he was abusive. The protection order specifically said Lesley should stay away from Uta Halee.

The couple had been going through a divorce and Lesley's wife had been staying with a family member.

Court records dictate a history of relentless messages and destructive and threatening domestic disturbances. Lesley's wife said in the protection order that he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and did not properly treat his condition.

Douglas County Sheriff's Capt. Steve Glandt confirmed Friday afternoon the gunman was dead of a self-inflicted gunshot after attempting to gain access to an administrative building, but that no one else had been hurt.

"Officers entered the facility and found one person deceased inside with an apparent gunshot wound," the Sheriff's Office release states.

Upon their arrival, Douglas County Emergency Services Unit officers searched the remaining campus buildings to make sure there were no other suspects or victims, he said.

Multiple agencies responded to the 12:36 p.m. Friday call saying there was an active shooter at the campus, located at 10625 Calhoun Road. Glandt said first responders arrived on scene at 12:44 p.m.; Nebraska State Patrol, Omaha Police, Douglas County Sheriff's Office, and even national agencies — ATF and FBI — all responded to the scene, which was declared initially secure at 12:46 p.m.

Glandt said the shooter came onto the property for what was believed to be a targeted shooting and later confirmed the suspect had a relationship with a staff member.

Multiple shots were fired, but no shots were directed at anyone at the scene, Glandt said. Shots heard during the incident were fired at a locked and secured door to an administrative building, he said.

Glandt said 48 students and 30 staff members on campus at the time of the shooting, but initial reports indicated no students were in the building where the shots were fired. Two students and a staff member were also off-campus at the time of the incident but have since returned, he said.

"Everyone is present and accounted for," Glandt said. "Everyone is safe."

Glandt said the campus and surrounding area facilities had been on lockdown in accordance with Uta Halee's protocol for an active shooter scenario.

Authorities were interviewing about 6-8 witnesses, some at NSP offices, and expected to be at the scene into the evening hours, he said.

The Lesley's home was also a scene of police activity. Officers served a warrant to search the residence for anything that might aid in the shooting investigation.

Neighbors said it wasn't the first time police have visited the home.

"They were here a week ago, but I guess something went down that night and that's how I kind of, what made me put two and two together when I saw the shotting and then they were here wrapping everything off and I'm like, please no," neighbor James Boehm said.

Boehm said Lesley seemed like an average guy.

"I would never have thought... he was the nicest guy. You'd walk inside and he'd be out doing whatever. Talking, he was friendly, would help you out," he said.

Other neighbors agreed.

"I have his ladder in my house from, like, replacing some ceiling fans. he was a great neighbor, so it's kind of a shock it went down like this," Brittany Brown said.

The neighbors were visibly shaken by Friday's events.
