Two children were killed in a shooting Wednesday at Annunciation Church in south Minneapolis, police said, and 17 people were injured, 14 of them children. In the aftermath, young children in school uniforms filed out of the building, clasping hands with their parents and friends.
Renee Lego, an Annunciation parishioner who has a 5th grader and 8th grader at Annunciation Catholic School, said her older son thought it was fireworks or a gas explosion until he started to see people falling. “Both my kids have blood on them,” she said Wednesday morning. “It’s just horrific — so cowardly.”
