Minneapolis shooter Robin Westman lived in quaint home in tree-lined neighborhood: ‘Seemed like a a great family’

MINNEAPOLIS — Robin Westman lived in a quaint home on a quiet, tree-lined street in Minneapolis — less than a mile from Annunciation Catholic Church where he shot 17 people, killing two young children.

The picturesque, two-story Tudor-style house, which is listed as the killer’s home address in public records, sits on a shady lot with a well-kept green lawn, The Post’s exclusive photos show.

Neighbor Stephen Jeglosky, who said his “jaw dropped” when he heard about Wednesday’s massacre, told The Post that the Westmans seemed like a “great family” and recalled seeing children running around the property.

The home’s idyllic backyard includes an ivy-lined shed, a Japanese fountain, a blooming vegetable garden and a firepit on a brick patio surrounded by floral-cushioned furniture and planters of pink flowers, photos show.

Inside, the front living room looked cluttered with several boxes of winter coats on the ground beside a coffee table topped with books. A half-filled glass of water sits on the typical-looking kitchen counter.

Jeglosky was stunned when he learned that the transgender gunman shot up a back-to-school Mass, killing an 8-year-old and a 10-year-old, and injuring 14 other kids and three octogenarian parishioners.

The 35-year-old recalled encountering the Westmans two years ago while they were celebrating what seemed to be a graduation.

“They flagged me down as I was on my way to my apartment and asked me to take a couple of group photos,” he said Wednesday afternoon.

“They seemed like a great family. There were kids running around, parents drinking, music playing. Their little Chihuahua nipped me in the ankle,” he added.

“They gave me a beer, and I went on my way. I guess you never know who somebody is.”

Westman, 23, took his own life after carrying out the mass shooting at the local church and school.

He had attended the school for a year as a child, and his mother worked there as a secretary for five years before she retired in 2021.

Minneapolis police said he had no prior criminal history, and all three guns he used in the shooting had been purchased legally.
