The Leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has announced a special global broadcast and public funeral services to honor Russell M. Nelson, the 17th President of the Church, who died at age 101.

The FBI is investigating the Michigan attack “as an act of targeted violence,” said Reuben Coleman, the acting special agent in charge of the FBI's Detroit field office.

A former lawyer and Utah Supreme Court justice, Dallin H. Oaks is all but certain to assume command of the LDS Church. He is fierce defender of religious freedom and a strong advocate for male-female marriage.

The death toll from the attack on a Michigan branch of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has risen to four, police confirmed Monday evening.
