(12,439 posts)They said the man who stopped the shooter was Dr. John Cheng, 52... and he was also killed in the struggle.
Yesterday I read that the Pastor broke a chair over the shooters head... details are still coming out.
Horrible act. Dr. Cheng is reported to have been an awesome Family/Sports Doctor and will be greatly missed.

Authorities also identified the sole churchgoer killed as Dr. John Cheng, a sports medicine doctor who "took heroic action" and charged the gunman. While Cheng rushed the suspect, Barnes said that his actions allowed the other churchgoers, who ranged between 66 and 90 years old, to subdue the gunman, undoubtedly saving more lives.
Shooter reportedly had 2 pistols and Molotov cocktails, had chained several doors closed and planned to shoot people then burn the church down.
