Buffalo, Minnesota Active Shooter Identified as Gregory Ulrich, 67
"
According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, in 2018,
Ulrich had called his former doctor “three times a day, threatening mass shooting, to blow things up and other revenge scenarios,” believing doctors had tortured him. Those allegations are contained in a police report obtained by the newspaper.
Ulrich was taken for an investigation; he had health issues relating to back surgeries, the newspaper said.
He is accused of saying he wanted to make a mass shooting “big and sensational so that it makes an impact,” the report states. The staff at Allina had sought to ban him from the campus and he was charged with violating a restraining order, but the case was tossed when he was declared mentally incompetent, according to the Star Tribune.
On his Facebook page, Ulrich only has a single photo of himself, which you can see above. He says he moved to Buffalo, Minnesota, in March 2020, although the sheriff indicated he was known to them. Authorities said, contrary to his Facebook page, that Ulrich has lived in the Buffalo community for a long time and has had contact with health care before. That’s why authorities believe the mass shooting was targeted. They weren’t more specific."
