Overview

• Shots rang out just before 8:30 a.m. at Annunciation Church in south Minneapolis during an all-school Mass in the first week of classes.
• Police say the assailant, a man in his early 20s, fired dozens of rounds from a rifle, shotgun, and pistol through the church’s windows, then died by suicide.
• Two children, ages 8 and 10, were killed in the pews; 17 others were injured, including 14 children, with several listed in critical condition.
• Hennepin Healthcare said it treated 11 patients, nine of them children, and Children’s Minnesota reported admitting several pediatric patients.
• Authorities have not publicly identified the shooter or established a motive, a device resembling a smoke bomb was recovered, and officials say the attack appears unrelated to Tuesday’s separate shooting near Cristo Rey High School.
