(NEXSTAR) — While investigators are still working to determine the motive in Wednesday's deadly shooting at Annunciation Catholic church in Minneapolis, some of the victims have been publicly identified.

Two children, ages 8 and 10, were killed in the shooting. Fourteen other kids, between the ages of 6 and 15, and three parishioners in their 80s were wounded but expected to survive, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said.
The children who were killed have not been publicly identified, but police said they were sitting in the church pews.
