A gunman opened fire at a church in Texas during Sunday services, resulting in multiple casualties. It is indeed sad that something like this will happen in a place of worship.

The attack happened at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs in Wilson County. The gunman reportedly entered the church at around 11:30 local time and began shooting.

Police told the outlet there were "multiple victims" and the gunman had been killed in the aftermath. The number of casualties is not yet clear.

Photos and video from the scene showed the area taped off by local law enforcement.

A number of helicopters have arrived to transport the wounded, KSAT 12 reporter Max Massey said.
