A pastor was killed and two other people were injured in a shooting at an East Texas church Sunday after the pastor confronted a man who had hidden from police in the church overnight, a local sheriff said.
Authorities had been using dogs and drones to search for the man late Saturday in woods near Winona following a car chase, and the pastor of the nearby Starrville Methodist Church discovered him hiding in a church bathroom Sunday morning, Smith County Sheriff Larry Smith said at a news conference.
Smith said he did not know why the man was initially being pursued but that the license plates on his vehicle were “fictitious.”
The pastor drew a gun and ordered the man to stop, Smith said, but the man grabbed the weapon and began shooting with it. The pastor was killed, a second person was injured by gunfire and another was hurt in a fall.
The man then stole the pastor’s vehicle and fled east before being arrested by deputies in nearby Harrison County, Smith said. He said the man was hospitalized Sunday afternoon with gunshot wounds to his hand, but that it’s unclear when he was shot.

Around 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Lindale police were informed of a suspect, identified as Mytrez Deunte Woolen, 21, of Marshall, in a dark-colored car that reportedly had a shotgun pointed out the window. A chase ensued at speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour. Officials say Woolen eventually left the car due to a blowout in the church parking lot and ran into the woods.
