TWO CHILDREN were shot and killed Wednesday in the pews where they worshipped during the first week back after summer break at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minn.

The victims were 8 years old and 10 years old.

Seventeen others were injured in the shooting, including 14 children, two of whom remain in critical condition.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said the shooter, a man in his early 20s, fired at the congregation from outside through the windows. The shooter acted alone and died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
