About half of the victims killed in the worst mass shooting inside a house of worship in American history were children, including one who was only a year old, Texas officials said Monday.
Twenty-six people were shot dead during the Sunday massacre at First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, a small, tight-knit town about 30 miles outside of San Antonio. Of them, 12 to 14 were kids, according to Wilson County Sheriff Joe Tackitt.
Some of those children were members of a family who saw three generations — eight members of their extended family, plus an unborn child — all killed within minutes.
“We’re having a hard time,” Joe Holcombe, who lost children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, told NBC News.
