FROM BREITBART: During a Sunday night press conference, Grand Blanc Township Police Chief William Renye indicated that two more bodies had been discovered in the burned church, bringing the total number of deaths to four.
Breitbart News reported that the shooter is down and that the church — the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc — was ablaze.
During the press conference, Grand Blanc Township police indicated the attacker “rammed the vehicle through the front door” of the church, then got out of the vehicle and began shooting. A church service was taking place — “there were hundreds of people in the church” — at the time of the attack.
Police believe they’ll find more victims in the area where the fire was strongest. They fear people were trapped by the flames and couldn’t escape the church.

“They were shielding the children who are also present within the church, moving them to safety,” he added.
