'Nuke India', 'Kill Trump': Minneapolis Catholic school shooter's messages on guns; video goes viral

Washington DC/IBNS: The words like "Nuke India", "Kill Trump Now" were written on the guns of the 23-year-old shooter, who opened fire at school children in the US city of Minneapolis, media reports said.

Identified as Robin Westman, the shooter opened fire at the children who were attending a church service at Minneapolis Catholic School in the major city of Minnesota.

A video on his now-deleted YouTube channel shows huge arms, ammunition and loaded magazines.

Among those, the guns carried the messages like "Kill Trump Now", "Nuke India", "Burn Israel", "Where is your God" et al.

As per a report by NDTV, the names of the previous school shooters were also written on the magazines.

Some of the messages were written on cyrillic.

Two students were killed while 20 others were injured in the gunfire incident that occurred on Wednesday morning.

The shooter was also killed, a US Justice Department official told Reuters.

The shooting occurred two days after school started at Annunciation Catholic School, a private elementary school with about 395 students.

 The school is connected to Annunciation Catholic Church, and both are located in a residential area in the southeast part of Minnesota's largest city.

Established in 1923, the pre-kindergarten through eighth-grade school had an all-school Mass scheduled at 8:15 am on Wednesday, according to its website.

Monday was the first day of school, and social media photos from that day show students in green uniforms greeting each other at bicycle racks, smiling for the camera and sitting together.
