Witness: Montco church incident turned deadly fast

[SecularMotion]

Gordon Hower was attending a Sunday church service with his wife when he saw a fellow congregant - displaying a handgun on his belt holster - reach for his weapon while speaking with another worshipper.

He turned to his wife and told her, "Get everybody out of here," he testified Thursday.

Hower said Mark Storms was showing his gun to Robert Braxton III, who appeared agitated at the service last month at the Keystone Fellowship Church in Montgomery Township, Montgomery County. Storms asked Braxton to step outside.

Braxton refused, Hower said. Upon seeing the gun, Braxton punched Storms.

1. Wasn't this incident covered earlier?

2. Probably, the OP tends to overlook dates and their own past posts

And now there's no room for them in their own group anymore.

It's been hijacked again and is being run by someone else now.

3. The original incident was covered

We are now learning more details about the incident and pending prosecution.

"The reason a 27-year-old boy is dead is because the defendant took a gun into a church," said Assistant District Attorney Laura Adshead, arguing against the request.

The judge agreed. And the room erupted into applause from Braxton's friends and family members before officers escorted Storms back to county jail.

4. Things don't look good for the shooter.

Starts with illegal brandishing.
Moves up to assault with a deadly weapon.
