TWO people were shot in a church in Alabama on Sunday.
The shooting occurred at Amity Missionary Baptist Church on St Stephens Road in Mobile, Alabama.
FOX10 reported the shooting happened around 1:45pm at the church.
Church services were not happening when the shooting occurred, WKRG reported.
FOX10 spoke with Deacon Thomas Young, who said the church was celebrating its 100th anniversary when the incident occurred.
Deacon Young said most of the churchgoers were in the back of the building and took cover during the shooting.
A man and a woman were hit in the shooting, according to the Deacon. Young said their injuries are non-life-threatening.
The cause of the shooting is not currently known, and the incident is under investigation.
Information about the perpetrator has not been released.
Just one day earlier on Saturday, August 7, the church's Facebook page shared images of free clothes, food, and school supplies seemingly available at the location.
