Minnesota school shooting: New details emerge about the shooter who claimed the lives of 2 children
Two children died and 18 people were injured after a shooting at the Church of Annunciation Catholic school on Thursday.A shooter dressed in black approached the outside of the church and opened fire through the stained-glass windows toward children sitting in the pews during mass on their first week back at school.
The shooter was armed with a rifle, shotgun and pistol, and shot off more than 100 rounds. O'Hara said police recovered three shotgun shells and 116 rifle rounds, as well as one live round that was recovered from a handgun that appears to have malfunctioned. Authorities do not believe the shooter ever entered the church before the shooter died by suicide in the parking lot.
There were 20 victims as a result of the shooting. Two children, 8 and 10, were fatally shot. Another 15 children, between the ages of 6 and 15, were injured by gunfire. Three adults in their 80s who were attending mass were also shot.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara shared an update on Thursday on the shooter's motives, saying the shooter was filled with hate toward everyone except mass shooters.
The shooter had a "deranged fascination with previous mass shootings and very disturbing writings that demonstrate hatred towards many different individuals and different groups of people," O'Hara said, noting the shooter "fantasized about the plans of other mass shooters."
O'Hara said they know the shooter wanted to obtain notoriety for themselves and asked people to avoid naming the shooter.
Authorities continue to investigate the shooter's motive and the shooter's specific trigger for targeting the children at Annunciation. However, the shooter had attended mass at Annunciation previously and had attended the school. The shooter's mom was also an employee of the parish. O'Hara said authorities have not been able to contact the shooter's mother.
"So obviously there is a connection between that shooter and this particular parish and this school," O'Hara said.
The shooter left behind hundreds of pages of writing describing the plan, mental state and hate, which included hate toward Black people, Mexican people, Christians, Jewish people, President Donald Trump and others, authorities said.
"The shooter appeared to hate all of us. The shooter's heart was full of hate," U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson said at Thursday's news conference, noting it appears the only group of people the shooter didn't hate were school shooters and mass murderers.
"More than anything, the shooter wanted to kill children, defenseless children. The shooter was obsessed with the idea of killing children. The shooter saw the attack as a way to target our most vulnerable among us while they were at their most vulnerable at school and at church," Thompson said.
