Two people have been killed, and on critically injured after a shooting took place at the West Freeway Church of Christ located in Texas.
MedStar spokeswoman Macara Trusty confirmed that one person died at the scene of the shooting, and one person died en route to a hospital. A third victim was transported to a hospital in critical condition.
The Church of Christ was live-streaming their Sunday services on their YouTube channel, and while the motive remains unclear, a man is seen running in a firing off shots while church-goers ducked under their seats in fear, as reported by the New York Daily News. The video has since been removed from the church’s YouTube channel.

That was a head shot.
A DAMN GOOD head shot.
Dude had training.
I have to say it was satsifying seeing their armed security take this murderer down.
Once again the good guy with a gun made me proud to be an American today!
Agreed.
And, I need to practice my headshots more.
“odd” that the name hasn’t been released yet. Scrubbing his socialist networking profile first?
The media gets the name before the public does, they always capture the tweets and facebook photos to use in subsequent news stories.
“People in the pews don’t seem to be doing much to get down or out of the way.”
The very second the bad guy took the gun from inside his coat and a shot was fired, they all hit the ground. Before that they were having a quiet Communion service.
Looking at the possible head covering....”Black Israelites”?
Link removed from that site.
“If you continue to view the video, it appears that at least three additional armed guardians move into the scene”
We noticed that. I expected there would’ve been more, this being in Texas and all. Half of the members should have been armed.
“I have to say it was satsifying seeing their armed security take this murderer down.”
Justice delivered immediately on the site. No time and money spent on arresting, processing, lawyers, DA, trial, psych exam, prison, food and health care. Done.
A lot of churches are fast understanding that they need volunteers to ‘watch’....hopefully also armed. Islamists and nut cases like to focus on where crowds of people gather....if they know churches have armed security they might think twice.
We have now come to the place where we each need to protect ourselves in all venues where people gather. ......and it’s beyond shameful the left till believes our school children dont need armed protection!
Could be he’s just wearing black.
Yes...swift Justice! and it’s over!
That’s a heck of a shot.
Looks like Grandpa practices.
Anarchist
Another thread said the defender is a former LEO.
I have been influenced though with some training videos some guy posted here on the forums some time back about how fast a perp can make up the ground between you and him before you could get a shot off. It is scary and why they teach officers to shoot to kill, no warning shot. And shoot many times.
Absolutely,
A Terrible
Swift Sword!
