Gun Store Owner Says Shooter Who Killed 2 Schoolchildren Showed No Warning Signs Before Attack
Surveillance shows Robin Westman acted friendly at a gun shop days before killing two children and injuring 21 at a Minneapolis church Mass, with no warning signs detected by staff.
- On Aug. 27, Robin Westman opened fire at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, killing 2 children and injuring 21; Father Dennis Zehren said at an Aug. 30 news conference, `If I could have got between those bullets`.
- The manifesto and pre‑attack footage suggest Robin Westman's manifesto on YouTube contained anti‑Catholic themes and admiration for mass killers, and he blamed gender dysphoria and mental‑health struggles for his long‑running depression and suicidal thoughts.
- Footage from Frontiersman Sports on Aug. 23 shows Westman spent 40 minutes handling guns and staff detected no red flags; he bought a small.38 special revolver not used in the attack.
- The parish resumed public Mass at the school auditorium, with Father Dennis Zehren saying the community needed it, as Governor Tim Walz plans to propose an assault-weapons ban later this week.
- Federal investigators are treating the attack as domestic terrorism and a hate crime, with the FBI scrutinizing Westman's manifesto while a MinnPost poll shows 54% support for assault-weapon bans amid ten states' restrictions.
