密歇根教堂袭击造成四人死亡；嫌疑人被确认是前海军陆战队员
摘要
一名前海军陆战队员驾车冲入密歇根一座教堂，开枪射击并纵火，导致四人死亡、八人受伤，随后被警方击毙。
2025年9月28日星期日，密歇根州大布兰克镇的耶稣基督后期圣徒教会发生了一起悲惨袭击事件。袭击者被确认是40岁的托马斯·雅各布·桑福德，他驾驶皮卡车冲入教堂，在礼拜期间向会众开枪，并纵火焚烧教堂。此次袭击造成四人死亡，八人受伤。桑福德在警方赶到现场时被击毙。
桑福德是一名前美国海军陆战队员和伊拉克战争老兵，曾公开表达反摩门教的情绪。袭击发生前几天，他曾对市议会候选人克里斯·约翰斯表示，他认为摩门教徒是“敌基督”。调查人员正在审查桑福德的背景，包括他在犹他州的经历，据称他在那里曾与一名虔诚的教会成员交往，并且曾与成瘾问题作斗争。
联邦调查局将此事件视为针对性暴力行为，并主导调查。有关当局正在搜查桑福德的住所和电子设备，以确定作案动机。总统唐纳德·特朗普谴责此次袭击，称其为针对基督徒的有预谋攻击，并呼吁结束美国的暴力泛滥。
教堂建筑因火灾严重受损，紧急救援人员仍在废墟中搜寻可能的其他受害者。社区正在哀悼逝者，并努力应对这场暴力事件带来的影响。
