Minneapolis Church Shooting Toll Rises to 30 as Court Filings Detail New Evidence

Police now count 30 victims in the Annunciation church attack following reports of late-treated shrapnel wounds.

Overview

  • Minneapolis police said the victim total increased from 23 to 30, including 26 injured children, three adults wounded by gunfire, and one juvenile hurt while fleeing.
  • The shooter, identified as 23-year-old Robin Westman, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound and is not included in the revised count.
  • Search-warrant affidavits say investigators recovered a loaded revolver, a dash camera and a memory card from the van Westman drove to the church.
  • Newly released 911 transcripts, reported by The Independent from records obtained by Fox News, capture teachers and children hiding as callers described multiple bursts of gunfire.
  • Recovery continues for injured students, with a family update noting student Lydia Kaiser has returned to school, as community support and calls for a special legislative session on gun measures persist.
