On August 27, 2025, south Minneapolis woke up to a headline nobody wanted, as the Annunciation Catholic school massacre turned morning mass pews into a scene fit for a tragic news montage. Two kids, ages eight and ten, were killed, while 17 more—mostly minors between six and fifteen—ended up injured, two critically but miraculously expected to survive. The FBI jumped in faster than a church-funded bingo rally, declaring it a domestic terrorism and Catholic hate crime. The shooter completed the grim script by offing themselves, because nothing says 'plot twist' like that. 17 injured kids and a town grappling with how mass gatherings now need a better security checklist than Martha Stewart’s holiday parties.
