Скачать или смотреть Michigan church horror: 40-year-old suspect opened fire on hundreds of Mormon worshipers

Two people were killed and at least eight others were injured after a gunman rammed his car into a Mormon church in Michigan during a service attended by hundreds — before opening fire on the church-goers, police said.

The shooting broke out at the Church of Latter Day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, about 50 miles north of Detroit, at 10:25 a.m. Sunday, Grand Blanc police said.

The suspected gunman was an unnamed 40-year-old man who drove his car into the church, Grand Blanc Township Police Chief William Renye said during a press conference.

After crashing into the building, the gunman opened fire on the hundreds of people, including children, gathered inside the church. A fire broke out soon after, though it was not immediately clear how. Authorities say they suspect the gunman started the blaze, which was under control just before 1 p.m.
