Скачать или смотреть Today: Minneapolis shooter deliberately targeted children, authorities say

Today as it Happened, Thursday, August 28:

At a press conference on Thursday, authorities said they do not have a direct motive for why a gunman killed two children and injured many others at a Minneapolis Catholic school, but that it was clear the individual wanted "notoriety" and "wanted to kill children."

“One thing is clear. It’s going to be hard to hear. But it’s important to the question of why this happened. More than anything, the shooter wanted to kill children. Defenseless children. The shooter was obsessed with the idea of killing children," said Thompson.

And a Scripps News review of autopsy reports, police records, child fatality documents, and lawsuits in Arizona and Florida shows dozens of children have died or nearly died at vacation homes in recent years after slipping into a backyard pool unnoticed.
