Who was Minneapolis shooter who opened fire and killed two children in Catholic school? 'No known criminal history'

Minneapolis Police said the Minneapolis shooter has been identified as a man in his 20s who was dressed in all black and was carrying three weapons. The shooter was confirmed dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he opened fire inside Annunciation Catholic School, killing at least two and injuring several others.”This was a deliberate act of violence against innocent children. The sheer cruelty and cowardice of firing into a church full of kids is absolutely incomprehensible,” the police chief said adding that the shooter was armed with a rifle, shotgun and a pistol. Without revealing the name of the shooter, police chief Brian O’Hara said he had no known criminal history. Despite reports that there were explosives at the scene of Wednesday’s shooting, none were found, the police chief said, adding that there was a “sort of firework”.The shooting took place during a Mass to mark the first week of school. The shooter fired through windows at people sitting in pews.The shooter probably had extensive knowledge about the school.
