Apparently you can’t even go to church without worrying about something popping off!
Nashville pastor Ezekiel Ndikumana did a lot more than just deliver a sermon on Sunday.
Ndikumana was leading the congregation in prayer when a man walked to the front and pointed a gun at the congregation. Ndikumana immediately tackled the man to the ground, and managed to grab the gun away with the help of other parishioners.
The gunman, 26-year-old Dezire Baganda, was arrested and is facing more than a dozen counts of aggravated assault. Pastor Ndikumana told reporters “I would say that God used me”. No kidding!
Talk about a hero because that could’ve been another tragedy that we’d be talking about. At a church of all places?!
