HARTFORD —The Rev. Dr. Augustus Sealy, who leads the First Church of the Nazarene on Capitol Avenue, was injured at about 6:30 a.m. Sunday in a drive-by shooting, police said.
Sealy, 54, was planting small flags in the church's lawn at 932 Capitol Ave. in honor of Memorial Day. He was shot in the leg and shoulder.
A witness identified a black car traveling west on Capitol Avenue, slowing as it passed the victim, and heard five gunshots. Seven shell casings were found on the scene, police said.

It could only be Amish if a rake was involved.

If there are prints on those casings, I'm betting the odds are about even that there will be a match with prints already on file. And just about anyone can guess the demographic from where those prints come from.
A PASTOR PLANTING US FLAGS.....

Nobody’s safe in Hartford, I think.

Given that the deceased was a man of the cloth I’d expect Revrunt Sharpton to begun looking into straightening this mess out RIght NOW... if not sooner!
I guess the Gun Free Zone SIgn should have been more Prominently Displayed in the Churchyard?
I don't think he died, just injured..
