Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Kash Patel, said that the FBI is “tracking reports of the horrific shooting and fire” and that “agents are on the scene to assist local authorities.”

“Violence in a place of worship is a cowardly and criminal act. Our prayers are with the victims and their families during this terrible tragedy,” Patel added

The shooting took place the day following the death of the 101-year-old president of the church, Russell M. Nelson.
