Murder and other charges were filed Thursday against the suspect in a shooting at a Minnesota health clinicGregory Paul Ulrich, 67, was charged with second-degree murder, four counts of first-degree attempted murder, possession of an explosive device and carrying a firearm without a license in connection with Tuesday's deadly shooting at the Allina Health Clinic in Buffalo, the Wright County Attorney’s Office said.
Ulrich was taken into custody after the shooting, which occurred Tuesday morning about 40 miles northwest of Minneapolis. Buffalo police Chief Pat Budke told reporters Tuesday there was no reason to believe Ulrich had any ties to domestic terrorism and that the shooting was an isolated event. They believe he acted alone.
Among the locations he is alleged to have threatened was the Allina Health Clinic in Buffalo — the urgent care facility where Tuesday's shooting took place. Richard Ulrich, 63, of Florida, said his brother became dependent on opioids when he had back surgery two years ago.
