A serious incident occurred this Wednesday in the city of Minneapolis, where shootings were reported on the premises of a Catholic school in the south of the city.
According to local authorities, the situation has been brought under control after a quick intervention by police and FBI federal agents, who are at the scene to investigate the incident.
The shooting occurred in the morning, near the Annunciation Catholic Church and School, shortly after a mass with students had ended. Authorities have not yet given details on the number of victims or the motives for the attack, but American media reports of 2 dead and 20 injured and a widespread response by security forces, including the ATF and emergency services.
US President Donald Trump immediately reacted through a post on his Truth Social network, calling the event a "terrible situation" and expressing support for the affected families. "I am fully informed of the tragic shooting in Minneapolis. The FBI responded immediately and is on scene. The White House will continue to monitor the situation. Please join me in praying for all involved," Trump wrote.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz called the incident "horrific" and confirmed that they are in constant contact with authorities to provide support to the community and ensure that justice is served without delay.
Minneapolis has been under increased public scrutiny due to repeated shooting incidents in recent years. Today's incident further adds to concerns about school safety and the need for deep reforms to gun control policies in the United States. Authorities have launched an investigation and are expected to issue a full statement in the coming hours.
