2 Dead in Shooting at Texas Church

VOA News

   Two people are dead and a third critically wounded after a gunman
   opened fire during services at a church near Fort Worth, Texas, Sunday.

   Police say two of the victims died on the way to the hospital.

   It is not clear if the shooter was killed or is the wounded man. The
   shooter has not been identified and his motive is unknown.

   Sunday's shooting at the West Freeway Church of Christ in the Forth
   Worth suburb of White Settlement was seen on a live YouTube feed.

   "Places of worship are meant to be sacred and I am grateful for the
   church members who acted quickly to take down the shooter and help
   prevent further loss of life," Texas Governor Greg Abbott said on
   Twitter, adding that his heart goes out to the victims and families of
   "the evil act of violence."
