“While the shots were being fired, people ducked under church pews and others rushed towards the shooter with handguns.”

Welcome to Texas.

There is very interesting video down thread that shows the action as it happened. The defender on the left reacts nearly instantly. If you continue to view the video, it appears that at least three additional armed guardians move into the scene to cover the perp while the defender stands over the perp to ensure he’s neutralized.

I was just about to say the same.

From DFWScanner.net:

“An individual sitting in the back of the sanctuary got up and spoke to another person in the back of the room, pulled out a weapon, and fired at least two shots. At that time, another armed person (possibly a security officer) drew his weapon and shot the shooter.”

I caught that.
Frantically working to try and save the video on my hard drive before YouTube takes it down.
Fraps isn’t working.

The guy in the back is trying to draw but he takes forever and the shooter hits him. The guy to his left hits the bad guy.

Was taken down almost immediately after I viewed it, about same time people here were trying to preserve it (about 3:50 PM eastern, 12/29/19).

I recorded it on my phone, but still have the window with the video open as I try to get it to record it on the Fraps software.

One of the security members died in the attack, likely the one trying to draw who was shot at close range by the shotgun (the first shot).

Youtube took it down. They don't really want to show the good guy killing the bad guy, so they say it too graphic.

That poor guy. Looks as if his long shirt was in the way. I can just imagine the panic he must have been going through.
