At least 16 people have been shot inside a Texas church after a gunman opened fire during the Sunday morning service.  

The shooting happened at the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs, where around 50 people usually attend service, according to local reports.  

Witnesses said a man 'in full gear' walked inside the church and opened fire just before 10.30am.

Neighbors in the area said they may have heard the shooter reload multiple times. 

Another witness at the scene said a two-year-old was also shot in the attack.

According to KSAT, there were at least six helicopters called in to transport victims to the hospital. 

It's unclear if anyone was fatally wounded in the attack.

Read reports the shooter is NOT from the area

My San Antonio is reporting that the police are searching the shooter's home, which is not in Sutherland. But they don't know where it is.

“I googled the name they provided, and this same name was used in a hoax alleging the identity of the Las Vegas shooter.”

Interesting because the NY Slimes is running with that name as the shooter...

“Authorities have preliminarily identified TX church shooter as white male in his mid-20s from outside San Antonio, sources tell @ABC.”

Check out the Sutherland Church's facebook web site, and more specifically check out the names of all the "Likes".

The Communist Party, Who call themselves Democrats, immediately want gun control because they fear for their own sorry arses and their government bureaucrat acolytes. This would have not been stopped bY any law. It was Another crazy person. The only way for the Communists in the congress to impose tyranny is to force gun control on decent citizens who would resist tyranny.

Wow, IF that is the shooter then that’s quite a development.--JGT

Another FReeper (corlorde) replied to that post saying that the same name was floated around on that website for the Las Vegas shooting. If that’s the case, it's obviously BS.

That name may be correct. The Islamic name that was on that same website, with a claim of a marine with a recent conversion to Islam, is fake.
