Michigan

A woman who was inside a Michigan church when her father and three other people were killed has written a public plea for peace. Lisa Louis also says she instantly forgave the gunman after they locked eyes in the chaos.

Authorities had feared they would find more victims in the charred wreckage but now believe everyone is accounted for after Sunday’s attack. Investigators are focusing on what motivated the former Marine to ram his pickup truck into the church in Grand Blanc Township.

Police say a 40-year-old man rammed a pickup truck into the front door of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, about 50 miles north of Detroit, before starting the shooting. He is also believed to have deliberately set fire to the church building.
