INDIANAPOLIS — Flags in Indiana will be flown at half-staff in memoriam of those who were killed in a shooting in Minnesota on Wednesday.

Braun’s order was issued after President Donald Trump mandated flags be lowered at all federal buildings in the U.S.

As of 6:53 p.m. on Wednesday, the Associated Press was reporting that two children were killed and 17 other people were injured when a shooter opened fire through the windows of a Catholic church in Minneapolis. Per the AP, the children were celebrating Mass during their first week of school.
