An enthusiastic atheist, who was also into psychics.

The Left is willing to believe anything, except the Truth.

An enthusiastic atheist who reportedly taught a children’s Bible class! Several children are among the killed and wounded.

Very sad! I wonder if Chris is the one who went after the killer?

"An enthusiastic atheist who reportedly taught a children’s Bible class!"

Wasn't that according to the murderer as posted to one of his other sites (Linked In or something like that?)?

Well, there must have been a reason for his name to have been out there. So, I guess it's a possibility.

Yeah, on the Bible class, he mentioned that on a site that showed a more sanitized bio (LinkedIn).

Yes.

“An unconfirmed LinkedIn account for Kelley lists four years of service in the Air Force and a month as a teacher aide for a Vacation Bible School in Kingsville, Tex., about two hours south of the site of the massacre.”

MUST SEE=> TX Hero Who Caught Gunman Devin Kelley Interviewed — CHASED HIM DOWN IN HIS TRUCK! (VIDEO)
Gateway Pundit

“Johnnie Langendorf was driving by the scene of the Sutherland Springs Church shooting when he witnessed shooter Devin Patrick Kelley exchanging gunfire with another man.”

Don’t see anything about who Langendorf saw in a firefight with Kelley. Chris Ward, perhaps? Still don’t know.

Behind the same link in my last comment,...
"After Kelley lost control of his vehicle, the man jumped out of Langendorf’s truck and pointed his rifle at the killer until police arrived on scene."

So who was "the man?" The piece says that it was the man who Langendorf saw exchanging fire with Kelley.

The title is wrong. Langendorf gave a ride to the one who fired at Kelley and later held him with a firearm. Hear for yourself in the video.

So who was that man? And did the police shoot Kelley for revenge after arriving at the scene where Kelley was held by Langendorf and the mystery man?

That’s one faked up resume. If it hasn’t changed, VBS stands for vacation bible school. Don’t recall seeing any “teacher aid” in one, either.

Sorry, I shouldn’t have said that about police shooting Kelley. Kelley may well have been shot by the mystery man before fleeing in his vehicle.

Woman says boyfriend chased Sutherland Springs church shooting suspect

Johnnie Langendorff told girlfriend he saw gunman, gave chase

By Chris Shadrock - Web - News Producer , Garrett Brnger - Reporter

Posted: November 05, 2017

SUTHERLAND SPRINGS, Texas - A woman says her boyfriend witnessed the end of the church shooting in Sutherland Springs and, with the help of a neighbor, gave chase to a person they suspected was the shooter.

Summer Caddel said her boyfriend, Johnnie Langendorff, called her moments after the shooting at First Baptist Church and told her that he saw a gunfight between the shooter and a neighbor, who was returning fire.

Langendorff then told Caddel the suspect — identified as Devin Patrick Kelley — then got into an SUV and drove away, and the two gave chase.

While on the phone with 911, Langendorff told his girlfriend the chase came to an end near a sharp curve near country roads 307 and 539.

Caddel understood that to mean the Kelley crashed. Moments later law enforcement officers arrived, she said.

She also said she has not spoken to her boyfriend in hours and that his phone was taken as evidence.

In recent history, senseless, unprovoked attacks like this one and these other recent ones are almost always acts of Islamic jihadism.

Until proven otherwise, I presume this was also done by an Islamic jihadist (convert).

How heroic locals exchanged gunfire with Texas shooter, ran him off the road as he tried to flee and shot him dead

By Hannah Parry For Dailymail.com

Published: 20:22 EST, 5 November 2017
Updated: 21:19 EST, 5 November 2017

Devin Patrick Kelley, 26, was leaving First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs after he opened fire on parishioners

An unnamed neighbor had ‘grabbed his rifle and engaged the suspect’

Kelley fled the skirmish and got back in his SUV to flee the scene

But another local resident, Johnnie Langendorff, witnessed the gun battle and both he and the unnamed neighbor jumped in his truck and gave chase

Kelley eventually lost control of his vehicle during the high speed chase

Langendorff said the suspect was then shot dead by the neighbor

Police have confirmed that Kelley killed at least 26 people before he was shot

Texas Department of Public Safety Regional Director Freeman Martin said that the neighbor, who has not yet been named, had 'grabbed his rifle and engaged the suspect.'

Martin said that during the gunfight, Kelley dropped his Ruger assault rifle and got back in his SUV to flee the scene.

But another local resident, Johnnie Langendorff, who had witnessed the confrontation refused to let the shooter get away. Both he and the unnamed neighbor jumped in his truck and gave chase.

In a Facebook post, Langendorff's girlfriend Summer Caddel described how the pair had 'jumped in my boyfriend's truck and they chased that sick b*****d down in pursuit until the cops could catch up. He was able to run the shooter off of the road on 539!'

Langendorff told KSAT 12 that he'd been speeding at 95mph, while on the phone to dispatch, while the neighbor kept his rifle trained on the gunman's car.

As they approached a sharp curve in the road, near the 307 and 539, he said Kelley appeared to lose control and his car swerved off the road.

'That's when I put the truck in park,' he said. 'The other gentleman jumped out, and had his rifle on him. He didn't move after that.'

Caddel added that Kelley was gunned down with a few feet from her boyfriend.

Martin confirmed that police had found Kelley dead, saying that: 'We are not sure if it was self inflicted or if he was shot by a local resident.'

Cops also found multiple weapons and possible explosives in the vehicle.

Thanks, ETL! Maybe someone will report on who really exchanged fire with Kelley.
