A 67-year-old man has been charged after opening fire at a Minnesota health clinic Tuesday, Fox News reported.

The man, who has previously been identified as Gregory Paul Ulrich, has been charged by prosecutors of second-degree murder, four counts of attempted murder, as well as other firearm and explosive related felonies, a criminal complaint read, according to Fox News.

The shooting, which took place in Buffalo, Minnesota, at an Allina Health Clinic, left a mother of two dead and four others injured. 

Ulrich faces a maximum sentence of 40 years for the second-degree murder charge, while the other charges carry sentences of a $100,000 fine and 20 years in prison, Fox News reported.

A Wright County Deputy Sheriff wrote that Ulrich called 911 after he committed the shooting, and said if responding officers “back[ed] away… he would surrender,” Fox News reported. Law enforcement was then able to take Ulrich into custody without further incident, according to Fox News.

The criminal complaint filed in Wright County against Ulrich says a search found he had a Smith and Wesson 9mm pistol, ammunition, and two marijuana cigarettes. 

The complaint goes on to say that Ulrich opened fire on the health clinic after staff asked him if he needed any help, according to Fox News. Ulrich then went on through the clinic, shooting one victim in the leg twice as they fled, and continued on with creating carnage, the complaint said. He also detonated two explosive devices while carrying out the shooting, the complaint alleges.

Upon arriving at the scene, officers found that “multiple areas of the clinic were damaged from apparent ammunition rounds and explosions” and an “undetonated improvised explosive device was located near the briefcase,” the complaint said, according to Fox News.

Previously, Ulrich’s former roommate Raymond Zandstra revealed Ulrich had a vendetta against doctors at the health clinic because of their refusal to give him more pain medication. “He didn’t like the doctors because they wouldn’t give him all the pain killers he wanted. They’d give him a month supply, and it would be gone in a few days,” said Zandstra.

Allina Health medical assistant Lindsay Overbay was shot and killed by Ulrich during the ordeal.  “Lindsay was a medical assistant who worked for Allina Health since November of 2018. The loss of Lindsay is traumatic for all who knew and loved her. Our entire Allina Health family extends our deepest sympathies to her family, friends and co-workers.” Allina Health said in a statement, Fox News reported.

Allina Health also said the other victims of Ulrich’s shooting were employees; one of whom was shot six times and remains hospitalized, according to Fox News.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
