A pastor in Lake Charles, Louisiana was on Friday shot and killed as he preached in his church.
The man who shot him is allegedly Woodrow Karey, a 53-year-old deacon in the church. He is said to have called 911 and told the dispatcher what he had done.
Continue after the break.
According to witnesses, Karey went into the church – Tabernacle of Praise Worship Centre – at around 8:20 p.m. and shot Pastor Ronald Harris two times.
He shot him the first time as he entered the church and the second time at close range after he (Harris) fell on the floor.
The suspect then fled the scene on foot but called the sheriff’s office later to surrender.
The deacon has no known criminal record and his motive of killing his pastor is still unknown. His bond was set at $1million.
