Pastor Shot Dead During Church Service


Story out of Dayton, Ohio:

A pastor was shot dead by his brother at an Ohio church on Sunday, police said.

 Daniel Schooler, 68, is accused of gunning down Pastor William Schooler, 70, inside the office of St. Peters Missionary Baptist Church in Dayton, Ohio.

The pastor "was the intended and only target" in the shooting, Dayton Police Homicide Division Supervisor Sgt. Richard Blommel said. No one else was shot or injured.

The gunman sat down during prayers at the church, then went to the pastor's office afterward, church member Alberta Blayth told WHIO.

"It wasn't a minute and I heard two shots, and...I just got everybody out of the church," she said. "And we just kept hearing shooting, shooting. Bang, bang, bang."

The shooting happened while the choir was singing, witnesses told CNN affiliate WDTN. About 20 people were inside the church at the time, the CNN affiliate reported. Cont. (Video/Autoplay)
