A twisted trans father shot his wife, three kids and a family friend in the stands at a high school hockey tournament in Rhode Island Monday — sending the crowd screaming and fleeing for the exits in a panic. 

Two people were killed, and three others are in critical condition at a hospital after the gunfire erupted at Lynch Arena in Pawtucket around 2:30 p.m., according to cops who described the incident as a targeted family dispute.

The shooter, identified as 56-year-old Robert Dorgan — who also went by Roberta Esposito — died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police said.

Dorgan was the father of a senior at North Providence High School, one of the six schools participating in the co-op games, WPRI reported. He shot his son’s mother, their three children and a family friend who were all spectating at the game, according to reports. . . . .
