Gunman drove truck into Michigan Mormon church and opened fire: police-National Post Staff-Sun, September 28, 2025 at 12:21 p.m. EDT

At least two people are dead and eight more were injured after a lone gunman drove a truck into a Michigan Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and opened fire on the hundreds of people celebrating service on Sunday morning, police said.Authorities also believe the suspected shooter, a 40-year-old male from Burton who was killed by a pair of responding law enforcement officers, according to Grand Blanc Township police chief William Renye, “deliberately” set fire to the church at some point during his attack.In a brief press conference Sunday afternoon, Renye said authorities believe there are additional victims trapped by fire.“We can’t confirm that just yet because it was a large fire and we do believe there was people up there near the fire and they were unable to get out of the church,” he said, noting he couldn’t say whether they died from gunshot wounds or fire-related injuries.At least two of the victims are in critical condition, according to Renye.He confirmed the weapon used was an assault rifle but wasn’t able to comment on the suspect’s relationship with the church or whether he was known to police.Renye said he and other agencies will have more information at a press conference scheduled for 5 p.m. EST.The fire has since been contained, but people are still asked to avoid the area. A reunification place for people off-site is the Trillium Theater.In a video posted to Facebook, Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson said the area had been evacuated and promised more updates later.“This is a dynamic scene,” he said.In a statement from spokesperson Doug Andersen, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints called for “peace and healing.”“We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of prayers and concern from so many people around the world. In moments of sorrow and uncertainty, we find strength and comfort through our faith in Jesus Christ. Places of worship are meant to be sanctuaries of peacemaking, prayer and connection.”Governor Gretchen Whitmer expressed condolences in a post to X and said, “violence anywhere, especially in a place of worship, is unacceptable.”U.S. President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that he’d been informed said federal authorities will offer their support.“The suspect is dead, but there is still a lot to learn. This appears to be yet another targeted attack on Christians in the United States of America,” he wrote.On X, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said she is receiving updates from the scene and that both Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) and Federal Bureau of Investigation agents were en route to assist local authorities.“Such violence at a place of worship is heartbreaking and chilling,” she wrote.FBI Director Kash Patel posted that “violence in a place of worship is a cowardly and criminal act.”According to the church’s website, services last for two hours — an hour-long meeting for the whole congregation followed by another in classes “separated by age groups or general interests.”The shooting comes a day after Russell M. Nelson, the parent church’s oldest-ever president, died at 101. He’s expected to be replaced by 93-year-old Dallin H. Oaks, the current longest-serving apostle.Grand Blanc is a suburb of Flint, about 100 kilometres northwest of Detroit.
