BUFFALO, Minn. (FOX 9) - Allina Health announced the organization has set up a fund for donations for the five families impacted by the deadly shooting at the clinic in Buffalo, Minnesota. We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received and know that our own employees and the public are eager to show their support, read a statement from Allina Health Thursday.
According to the charges, Gregory Ulrich shot five people inside the clinic on Tuesday. Lindsay Overbay, a 37-year-old medical assistant, died in the shooting.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is ordering flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of the victims of the shooting at the Allina Health clinic in Buffalo, Minnesota.
A woman is dead and four other people were injured after a man opened fire at the Allina Health Clinic Crossroads campus in Buffalo, Minnesota, on Tuesday, the Buffalo police said.
Law enforcement is very familiar with the suspect, identified as 67-year-old Greg Ulrich of Buffalo, said Buffalo Police Chief Pat Budke and Wright County Sheriff Sean Deringer. Ulrich was taken into custody at the facility, police said.
Authorities believe this was a targeted incident and that the suspect acted alone, Budke and Deringer said. There is no information at this point that leads us to believe there is any nexus with any type of domestic terrorism, Budke said.
Assistant Wright County Attorney Brian Lutes said he intends to charge Gregory Paul Ulrich, 67, with second-degree intentional murder, four counts of attempted first-degree attempted murder, and possession of an explosive or incendiary device in connection with the shooting inside the Allina Health Clinic. "I will aggressively prosecute Ulrich for this horrible crime and the pain he caused to the victims, their families and the entire community," Lutes said.
