Breaking: Shooting reported at West Freeway Church of Christ near Fort Worth. One dead and at least two in critical condition, according to media reports. More to come.
Three shots were fired during the Lord's Supper at 1 hour and 23 minute mark of church's livestream, and I wouldn't recommended watching it. I shouldn't have.
It appears that a gunman shot two church members at back of auditorium with a footlong weapon, then a member shot the gunman with a pistol. This is just based on me watching the video again. Screaming afterward in the church. So tragic.
Two quick shots at back, then another shot. Then at least three members (I believe) with pistols watching toward where the gunman appeared to fall.

Catholic friend asking what the Lord's Supper is. It's the communion service — bread (crackers) and fruit of the vine (grape juice) offered each Sunday as a memorial to Christ's death on the cross. They were still passing the trays in the full auditorium when gunfire erupted.
Someone else asking if West Freeway Church of Christ is same as Airport Freeway Church of Christ. It is not. There are A LOT of Churches of Christ in Dallas-Fort Worth. Or in this case, Fort Worth-Dallas.
