FBI Director Kash Patel said his agency is tracking reports of Sundays deadly shooting at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) in Michigan.
We are tracking reports of the horrific shooting and fire at an LDS church in Grand Blanc, Michigan. @FBI agents are on the scene to assist local authorities, Patel said in a post on the social platform X. Violence in a place of worship is a cowardly and criminal act. Our prayers are with the victims and their families during this terrible tragedy, he added.
Attorney General Pam Bondi also said on X that she was receiving briefings about what appears to be a horrific shooting and fire at an LDS church in Grand Blanc, Michigan. @FBI and @ATFHQ agents are en route to the scene now, she added. Such violence at a place of worship is heartbreaking and chilling. Please join me in praying for the victims of this terrible tragedy.
Authorities said one person was dead and 10 others injured after a man drove through the front doors of the church. The suspect was declared dead after an exchange of gunfire with authorities, the local police chief said during a press conference Sunday afternoon.

(2,567 posts)to blame it on Democrats. And hide the politics of the shooter. Sounds like a radical Christian sect that hates Mormons..

Besides, many MAGA say LDS aren't "real Christians."

(12,038 posts)We have a trend, alright. Just TODAY, Sunday, especially, and I would say every time a GD Republican resides in the fucking WH! The Republican Party is the party of VIOLENCE. Period. Full stop. The party of WAR and War Mongers. Always has been and always will be. Why on this earth would anyone in this country THINK of driving his car into the front door of a church on a Sunday, then getting out of it and start mowing down parishioners with his AR-15?
I am clearly at my wits end.
