The Gateway Pundit recently reported on a gunman who opened fire at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on McCandlish Rd. in Grand Blanc, MI. At the time of our initial report, 6-8 victims of the gunman had been taken to the hospital, although the exact toll had not yet been confirmed. The church caught fire during the incident, triggering a massive four-alarm emergency response.
At a press conference only moments ago, Grand Blanc Township Police Chief William Renye identified the suspect of the mass shooting inside the Mormon Church as a 40-year-old man from Burton, a neighboring city just outside Grand Blanc, roughly 60 miles north of Detroit.
Chief Renye said the gunman, a 40-year-old male from nearby Burton, Michigan, drove his vehicle into the church and began to open fire on the parishioners inside. The shooter was shot and killed by local law enforcement, including an armed DNR agent, and was killed in the exchange of fire with officers.
The police chief has confirmed that the 10 gunshot victims were transported to local hospitals and that one of the victims has died from his injuries by the gunman.
Investigators believe the 40-year-old man from Burton acted alone, armed with an assault rifle. According to Renye, the suspect rammed his vehicle through the church’s front doors before opening fire on parishioners and then “deliberately” setting the building ablaze.

The Grand Blanc police chief told the media he does believe they will find additional victims inside the fire, as law enforcement believes some of the victims were unable to get out of the burning church, but said “We have no idea at this time,” how many victims may have been trapped inside. He also stated that the FBI has been active in helping them to investigate the crime.
