Johnnie Langendorff recounts capture of church shooter in Sutherland, Texas.

Link to video

There was a gunfight. Johnnie saw the last of it. The defender asked Johnnie for help in following the shooter.  Johnnie and the defender chased the shooter, the shooter eventually ran off the road. The community rifleman kept the shooter covered with his rifle. The church shooter did not move after that. The police showed up a few minutes later.

No ..... I don't think they will.

If it is the shooter, he was captured alive and now he's dead.

Or he was wounded in the shootout, took off, felt himself failing and pulled off the road and expired.

The citizen held a gun on the suspect/perp.

So, when did the shoot-out that left the perp dead occur?

[News/threads on this whole incident has been sporadic and lacking many details.]

My Brother-in-Law’s Sister is married to a New York State trooper. I guess he is retired now. They live in upstate New York.

I met them only once in Virginia and I will have to say they are some of the few people who are more conservative than me. Also devout Christian.

Sounds like it happened as the shooter was leaving the church. Johnnie says he witnessed the tailend of an exchange of gunfire.

It often takes a while for gunshot to have a debilitating effect.

Local citizen and the shooter are exchanging fire.

So the guy (Johnny) and the other guy (with a rifle I believe) chase the guy down on Northbound 539 at 90-95 mph.

The shooter then slows down and apparently looses control and or just stops.

Johnny and the rifleman maintain position with the rifle on the vehicle as Johnny said they never got close enough to to see the person in the car.

The LEOs show up and move them back.

The shooter is reported “dead” but no one knows if the LEOs shot him at that point or was he found dead by the LEOs.

You are correct, local citizen responders captured or shot the shooter who then died in the car as Johnny and the rifleman tracked him.

My money is on the local citizen being a better shot than the shooter and hit him in the exchange Johnny saw before the chase.

Sounds like he got a fair look that those two “gun men” were no longer on the same team before pulling him on board. Plus the 911 call corroborated, in general.

True up to a point. I lived in California for 69 years and saw it all change. Ninety percent of the people in California ARE that way. The cities set the way it is believed by outsiders. Change the cities and the perception will change.

I do respect your reply and I thank you for it, however I will state what I’ve seen first hand.

New York City folk, yes. But most of NYS is 180o out of phase with The Big Cesspool.

The shooter dropped his gun while escaping and somebody picked it up. Possibly the same guy with Johnnie.

Interesting that he took it at face value that defender wasn’t part of the shooters team.

Good point... He took a chance and it turned out that he was on the right side. From the interview, it sounds like the shooter perhaps had been hit at the intersection and bled out when he was on the run. Maybe that's why his vehicle left the road? Johnnie didn't indicate that he heard further shots..... It should like the other possibility is that the impact when the shooter's vehicle left the road was fairly severe and that's what killed him.

The shooter is such an eff’n loser. Barges into a church to kill those who worship God and inherits the eternal fires of hell as his chosen reward. Super sux to be him.
