A tragic shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic school claimed the lives of two children, aged 8 and 10, and left 17 others injured. The shooter, identified as 23-year-old Robin Westman, then took their own life. Evidence suggests the attack was premeditated, with the gunman’s weapons bearing the disturbing messages “kill Donald Trump” and “nuke India.” The incident unfolded during the first week of school, while students were attending Mass. Authorities confirmed Westman was armed with a rifle, a pistol, and a shotgun. Westman fired dozens of rounds through the church windows at children.
According to court records, Westman’s name was changed from Robert in 2020, and Westman identified as female. A YouTube channel named “Robin W” featured at least two videos prior to its removal. One video showcased weapons, ammunition, and loaded magazines. The magazines displayed messages such as “Kill Donald Trump,” “kill Trump now,” “Israel must fall,” and “Burn Israel,” while one weapon had “Nuke India” inscribed on it. Other inscriptions included “Where is your God?” and “for the children.” Names of prior school shooters were scribbled on a magazine, with some messages in Cyrillic script. The video included the person holding up a smaller firearm and saying, “This one is for me. In case I need it.”
