Three people remained in hospital on Sunday, St Cloud mayor Dave Kleis told reporters, one of them with life-threatening injuries. “We are currently investigating this as a potential act of terrorism, and I do say potential,” FBI agent Richard Thornton said at a press conference. Authorities in St Cloud noted that they did not yet have evidence about the attacker’s motives. “From what witnesses say, he identified himself as a police officer,” Kleis said. While the the motive for the attack remains unclear, the attack could raise community tensions in St Cloud.
