A gunman opened fire in a Texas church during services on Sunday and was then shot by “heroic” parishioners who prevented a bloodbath, law enforcement officials said.
Two people, including the shooter, were killed and a third person was in critical condition.
“Evil walked boldly among us,” Tarrant County Sheriff Bill Waybourn said at an afternoon press conference. “Good people raised up and stopped it before it got worse.” Jeff Williams, regional director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, said the attendees who took action “saved countless lives.”
The violence unfurled during communion at the West Freeway Church of Christ in White Settlement, a suburb of Fort Worth.
