A pastor has said it had to be a miracle no one was hurt, after a man pulled a gun on him during a service on Sunday, but the firearm jammed.
The moment was caught on video thanks to the Pennsylvania church’s livestream, with the pastor jumping out of the way as the suspect brandished the gun at him from the aisle.
Pastor Glenn Germany, of Jesus’ Dwelling Place Church in North Braddock, said Monday he was thankful to God to still be alive.
“He pulled the trigger and a miracle of God happened that the gun got jammed. That bullet had a name on it,” Mr Germany told ABC’s Good Morning America.
The suspect, Bernard Junior Polite, 26, was later arrested after a member of the congregation tackled him to the ground.
He reportedly told Pennsylvania State Police officers after his arrest that “God told him to do it”, ABC News reported.
Later Sunday evening, a body was reportedly found at Mr Polite’s home on the 500 block of Stokes Avenue in North Braddock.
Allegheny County Police Department said that a man had been shot to death, with the Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s office confirming the victim as Derek Polite, 56.
Shining example of the 13% committing 65% of murders and 55% of all violent crime.
But if we take everyones guns away, then those 13 percent can't commit murder.
Doncha know!?

I know... I was being sarcastic.
I gotcha Fren!
I just thought it would be a good opportunity to have President Trump emphasize the ridiculousness of the left's "Gun Control" reasoning.
Very true. I love those gifs
I'm guessing they don't have several heavily armed farmers sitting at the entry doors like the churches around here do. If you walk into one of our local churches, and you see a few men looking more towards the door than the preacher, then know they will happily put a bullet or ten in your gray matter.
Truly a God Miracle! 🙌
MK Ultra eyes on this one for sure, look at that mug
I meant the mugshot of the shooter
