A Minnesota nursing assistant who died in a medical clinic shooting earlier this week was a poker journalist and mother of two, who dreamed of publishing a children’s book, her family said.
Prosecutors say a shooter brought four bombs and a handgun to a small-town clinic, apparently as revenge for back treatment he was unhappy with, and killed one while injuring four others.
