His statement came after a deadly mass shooting took place the morning of Aug. 27 at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis shortly after the start of the school day during an all-school Mass at the adjacent Annunciation Catholic Church. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Westman "targeted our most vulnerable: young children praying in their first morning Mass of the school year." Two children, ages 8 and 10, were killed in the shooting at Annunciation Church in Minneapolis. The mass shooting at Annunciation appears to be the first of its kind involving a Catholic school since the 1999 Columbine High School massacre in Littleton, Colorado.
