Three Killed In U.S Catholic School Shooting

At least three people were killed and several others injured on Wednesday morning when a gunman opened fire at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, law enforcement officials said.

Two law enforcement sources told CBS that two people were shot dead, while about twenty others were reportedly injured.

ABC News reports that the shooter also died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Governor Tim Walz confirmed that state and local law enforcement responded to the shooting, which broke out during a school-wide Catholic mass for students in kindergarten to eighth grade in the first week of the new school year.

“I’m praying for our kids and teachers whose first week of school was marred by this horrific act of violence,” Walz said.

Authorities stressed that the situation has been contained and there is no ongoing threat to the wider community.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey described the incident as “horrific violence” and urged residents to give officers space as they worked to secure the school grounds.

Federal agencies, including the FBI, ATF, and Department of Homeland Security, joined local officers at the scene. Attorney General Pam Bondi said agents were coordinating closely with Minneapolis police.

“My prayers are with everyone involved in this tragedy. Our team will provide updates as we receive them,” she said.

Parents and family members were directed to a reunification zone at a nearby location as children were escorted out of the school.

Minneapolis police confirmed that streets around Annunciation Church and School were closed off to allow emergency crews to assist victims.

President Donald Trump said he had been briefed on the attack and that federal agents were quickly deployed.

“The FBI quickly responded, and they are on the scene. I am praying for all those affected by this terrible tragedy,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also confirmed her department was tracking the events in real time.

“I am praying for the victims of this heinous attack and their families,” she posted on X.

Authorities are expected to provide more details at a press conference later today.
