The New Mexico Shooting Sports Association (NMSSA) has expressed sorrow following a shooting incident at Annunciation Catholic School and Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota. According to early reports from officials and local media, the shooter has been contained, with multiple victims reported, including at least two fatalities and up to 20 injuries.

The organization also extended gratitude to Minneapolis first responders and medical teams for their prompt actions. The public is encouraged to follow official updates from local authorities as there is currently no ongoing threat at the scene.
