White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said investigators believe the man accused of fatally shooting four people at a Michigan church “hated people of the Mormon faith.”
Police say former U.S. Marine Thomas Jacob Sanford killed four people and injured eight when he opened fire at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, on Sunday morning. Sanford slammed his truck, bearing two American flags, into the church before he opened fire, according to authorities.
