Mass shooting at Salt Lake City church meetinghouse kills at least 2, police say

Zoom in: The shooting at 660 North Redwood Rd. occurred during a memorial service, the Church said on X.

• "The suspects are still outstanding, but our officers have obtained solid leads and are working to locate those involved," Salt Lake City Police Department said in a statement posted to its social media accounts.
• The eight adults who were wounded were shot outside, Salt Lake City Police Chief Brian Redd said.
• Redd said the shooting did not appear to be a "targeted attack" against Latter-day Saints.

What they're saying: "We extend prayers for all who have been impacted by this tragedy and express deep concern that any sacred space intended for worship should be subjected to violence of any kind," the Church said.

• Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall said on X "the fact that it happened outside a place of worship during a celebration of life is especially heartbreaking."

• Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), a Latter-day Saint, in a post to X urged the members of the public to contact authorities with any information about the suspects.

Flashback: Wednesday's shooting occurred just over three months after a man opened fire inside a Latter-day Saint chapel in Michigan, killing four people and wounding eight others.

• The gunman, who was killed by police, reportedly held anti-Mormon views.
