An active shooter who targeted a Catholic church and school in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Wednesday has been contained, the city said.
“There is no active threat to the community at this time. The shooter is contained,” the city said in an X post.
Local NBC News affiliate KARE 11, citing a source, reported that initial information suggests a “significant number of victims,” including some children, in the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School.
Before the shooter was declared contained, Gov. Tim Walz said he had been briefed on the shooting and that he was “praying for our kids and teachers whose first week of school was marred by this horrific act of violence.”
President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social later Wednesday morning, “I have been fully briefed on the tragic shooting in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The FBI quickly responded and they are on the scene. The White House will continue to monitor this terrible situation. Please join me in praying for everyone involved!”
