The American national Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating a shooting in Minneapolis that may have been religiously motivated. According to FBI manager Kash Patel on Wednesday, investigators consider the event as a possible act of interior terrorism and a hatred crime directed at Catholics.
The tragedy occurred during mass at the Catholic church, located at the school. The perpetrator opened fire on the faithful, including the children attending the service.
Two children aged 8 and 10 were killed as a consequence of the attack, and 17 people, including 14 children, were injured.
The perpetrator was identified as Robin W., whose agency Reuters described as a 23-year-old Minneapolis resident. According to the information in the court records, in 2020 she changed her name with Robert, declaring herself as a woman.
