Father of child killed in Minneapolis shooting speaks out

Jesse Merkel, whose eight-year-old son Fletcher was killed in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School on Wednesday, addressed the media outside the church involved in the incident. In his statement, he characterized Fletcher as a loving child with interests in fishing, cooking, and sports. Merkel expressed profound loss, stating, “We will never be allowed to hold him, talk to him, play with him, and watch him grow into the wonderful young man he was on the path to becoming.” The shooting has raised questions about safety and security measures in schools.
