Former Student Identified in Stewartville School Shooting as Classes Resume With Support

Preliminary autopsy results show Logan Moyer died by suicide, with investigators yet to determine a motive.

Overview

  • Olmsted County Sheriff identified the gunman as 19-year-old Logan Moyer, a 2024 Stewartville graduate and former member of the wrestling team.
  • The student wrestler he shot before dawn Friday remains hospitalized in critical but stable condition after surgery at Mayo Clinic’s Saint Marys campus.
  • Roughly 40 teammates and coaches were present in the parking lot; coaches rendered first aid before a second shot was heard and Moyer was found dead with a rifle nearby.
