A mass shooter was stopped by Christians before he could start a shooting spree at St Mary Magdalen in Abbeville, Louisiana.
According to reports, the 16-year-old teen dressed in black and carrying a rifle was stopped just as he was opening the back door to the church during a First Holy Communion ceremony.
The vigilant parishioners quickly apprehended the anti-Christian terrorist and held him down to the ground until police arrived.

The incident which was captured on livestream is now been investigated by the FBI and the Abbeville Police. The Abbeville Police Department said they “made a sweep through the church to make sure there was no additional threat” when they arrived at 10:35 CST (16:35 BST).
The police said the suspect told them there was a second shooter nearby. However, they didn’t find evidence to support that. The suspect was taken into custody and questioned, then taken to be medically evaluated. He is charged with terrorizing and two counts of possession of a firearm by a juvenile.
“A suspicious person opened the back door of the building”. Witnesses told local news that he was armed and dressed in black”, St Mary Magdalen Catholic Church wrote on Facebook. “The individual was immediately confronted by parishioners, escorted outside and the police were called”.
This is coming after another man walked up to the front of the pulpit where a pastor was preaching and pulled the trigger, but his gun jammed.
