‘I want to go out on my own means. Unfortunately, due to my depression, anger and twisted mind, I want to fulfill in a final act that has been in the back of my head for years’

The gunman in a horrific shooting at a Catholic church and school in Minneapolis, Minnesota, killing at least two children and injuring 17 others has been identified as a transgender individual Robin Westman, formerly known as Robert Westman.
Westman opened fire through the stained glass windows of Annunciation Catholic Church during a back-to-school Mass filled with children 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. The assailant died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the back of the church.
KARE-TV reporter A.J. Lagoe reports Westman’s mother “is believed to have worked at the church or school.”
