Attacker Kills Pastor of a North Texas Church; Rams Car into Church, Beats Pastor with Guitar

A North Texas pastor was killed yesterday (October 29, 2012) by an attacker who rammed a car into the church wall, chased the pastor, and beat him with an electric guitar from the church, according to the Associated Press website.

Police in Forest Hill -- a suburb of Fort Worth -- did not say why the unidentified suspect attacked the Rev. Danny Kirk, Sr., the founding pastor of Greater Sweethome Missionary Baptist Church.

The suspect -- on whom police used a Taser to subdue -- also died a short time after being taken into custody.

Forest Hill Police Chief Dan Dennis said the suspect drove his car into a church wall -- apparently on purpose -- before noon yesterday. The suspect got out of the car and began to attack the pastor in the parking lot before chasing him into the church, Dennis said. The church secretary hid and called 911, the police chief added.
