The gunman who killed at least two children on Wednesday during a mass at a Minnesota Catholic school has been identified as a 23-year-old trans-identified male named “Robin” Westman.
Police say Westman took his own life after the shooting, which also left over 17 people injured at Annunciation Catholic School around 8:30 a.m. As many as 14 children, two of whom were in critical condition, were among the wounded, according to officials.
Immediately following the shooting, reports on social media indicated Westman left a lengthy manifesto, but investigators have yet to identify a motive.
Here are five things to know about Westman and the shooting.
