A 10-year-old student at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis described how his classmate shielded him during a mass shooting at the church earlier this week, saving his life but taking a bullet in the process, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

Fifth-grader Weston Halsne spoke to KARE 11, NBC’s Minneapolis affiliate, explaining how his friend acted during the attack. “The shots were like, right next to me,” Weston said.

“My friend Victor, like saved me, though, because he layed on top of me, but he got hit.”

He added, “Um, he’s really brave, and I hope he’s good in the hospital.” Weston also addressed other victims, saying, “I hope you’re okay, and I’m praying for you.”

In a separate interview with Fox, Weston described the shooter’s appearance, saying the gunman was “wearing all black” and a ski mask. “He shot through the stained glass windows, so they’re probably ruined,” he told reporters.

When asked about an apparent injury on his neck, Weston said, “I don’t even know what it’s from, kind of looks like debris or something.” He noted that his injured friend was helped out of the church after being struck.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara confirmed that the shooter, identified only as a male in his early 20s, entered the Catholic church during school mass and opened fire on children.

Authorities said two children were killed and at least 17 others were injured, including 14 children and three adults.

Police reported that the gunman was armed with a rifle, a shotgun, and a handgun. He died at the scene from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Oxnard police were investigating gunfire around Southwinds Park that reportedly left several teens injured Tuesday night, March 4, 2025.

Investigators discovered that before the attack, the shooter had posted a manifesto on YouTube. The video displayed his firearms, with phrases such as “kill Donald Trump” written on the barrels and magazines.

In addition, footage showed a paper target with an image of Jesus Christ placed over the head.

FBI Director Kash Patel announced Wednesday that the Bureau is treating the case as domestic terrorism and a hate crime directed at Catholics.

Federal agents are working with local law enforcement to review evidence and determine whether the shooter acted alone or had assistance.

Classes at Annunciation Catholic School remain suspended as families grieve and investigators continue their work at the site. Church officials confirmed counseling services are being offered to students, parents, and staff members in the aftermath of the shooting.

The community has held multiple prayer vigils since the incident, with local clergy calling for support for the victims’ families. Police have not released further details about the suspect pending completion of their investigation.
