A peaceful Sunday morning in Grand Blanc, Michigan, was shattered by violence after a man stormed the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, opening fire on churchgoers and setting the building ablaze in a shocking attack.
Early reports coming out immediately after the chaos were sketchy at best. Local outlets initially stated that as many as 6-8 victims had been rushed to the hospital.
