Briefly

Michigan churchgoers saved fellow congregants; motive still unclear, FBI says
""They were heroes," said Michael Danic, the medical chief of staff at Henry Ford Genesys Hospital, which treated victims of the attack."
""Those on the scene were absolute heroes, going in and out of the fire to drag people out, helping each other take care of the victims.""
""[I] just ask that people lower the temperature of rhetoric," Whitmer said."
""Keep your loved ones close, and keep this community close to your hearts.""
A man rammed a truck into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints facility in Grand Blanc, Michigan, opened fire, and set the building ablaze, killing four people. All congregants at the facility have been accounted for. Worshipers entered the burning building to drag fellow congregants to safety and assisted victims. Eight people, ages 6 to 78, were injured; five were treated for gunshot wounds and three for smoke inhalation, with at least two in critical condition. The gunman, Thomas Jacob Sanford, 40, died after police exchanged gunfire. FBI and ATF investigators are probing motive and recovered improvised explosive devices.
