WATCH: Annunciation School Student Shares Friend’s Heroic Move During Shooting

Chilling footage of a student who survived Wednesday’s shooting at Annunciation School in Minneapolis described the harrowing experience that nearly cost him his life.

A fifth-grade boy, whose name was not released along with his interview, described how a classmate laid on top of him after being shot as he played dead. The boy is believed to be just one of at least 14 children shot by an alleged transgender shooter around 8:30 a.m.

“I think he’s going to be okay,” the boy told a reporter. “He was laying on top of me and, like, making sure I was safe.”

“He got hit. That was really brave of him.”

Asked about a “nick” on his neck resulting from the chaos, the boy explained he thought he had been hit by debris, possibly from a gunshot.

He said the entire experience left him feeling “confused” about how many of his classmates fared worse than the boy who saved his life, and who is expected to survive.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara stated late Wednesday that authorities has identified the shooter as 23-year-old Robin Westman, a transgender who appeared to have made anti-Trump and anti-Catholic threats days before going on a rampage.

O’Hara stated at a press conference that Westman had recently purchased his firearms, but declined to describe how he qualified for the purchases or where they were made.

“Our investigators are working with other agencies, [and are] in the process of executing four search warrants. One is for the church itself where this crime occurred,” O’Hara said. “The other three are residences nearby in the metro that are related to this shooter. Additional firearms are being recovered from those three residential locations as we speak.”

The police chief added that there is no indication that any other individual was involved in the mass shooting.

Online sleuths uncovered an archived YouTube video allegedly posted by Westman, who is heard describing his love for “Peace, love, unity, and guns.”

“F*** God,” the individual laughs at one point in the video.

An array of handguns and long guns is displayed in the 11-minute video, some of which carry explicit calls for violence inscribed on magazines containing bullets possibly used in the attack.

“Where Is Your God?” reads one message on a magazine that appears ready to be loaded into a rifle.

Another targets the president: “Kill Donald Trump.”

A third long gun magazine references the Joker villain from the Batman movies.

“I’m the Woker Baby. Why So Queerious?” it reads.

Brandon Herrera, a Second Amendment activist mentioned by the shooter, denounced his “hateful and senseless act.”

Herrera told Fox News, “I’m horrified by this clearly hate-motivated attack on innocent children and disgusted that my name came out of this demon’s mouth.”

Herrera went on to say, “I meet thousands of people every year at SHOT Show in Las Vegas, but I don’t remember this individual at all, nor does anyone I was there with.”
