‘Because of the quick action of these two men, this evil event was over in six seconds’
The gunman who opened fire in a Texas church on Sunday, killing two before dying from gunshot wounds, owned a shooting range and had taught its parishioners how to shoot, the Texas Attorney General said on Monday.
The incident took place in White Settlement, a suburb northwest of Fort Worth, at the West Freeway Church of Christ. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick praised the church’s volunteer security guards for taking down the shooter. “Because of the quick action of these two men, this evil event was over in six seconds,” Patrick said in a statement on Sunday.
