Police say the gunman opened fire during Sunday morning services at the West Freeway Church of Christ, fatally shooting two worshipers before being shot and killed by armed parishioners. This is Jeoff Williams of the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Jeoff Williams: “This country has seen so many of these that we’ve actually gotten used to it to this point. And it’s tragic, and it’s a terrible situation, especially during the holiday season.”
