MAN ARRESTED AFTER ATTEMPTING TO FIRE HIS WEAPON AT A PENNSYLVANIA PASTOR DURING SERMON. (PHOTO).


 Man arrested after attempting to fire his weapon at a Pennsylvania pastor during sermon.


The congregation at the Jesus Dwelling Place Church in North Badock, Pennsylvania were stunned when a man allegedly pulled out a firearm and aimed it at the pastor, Glenn Germany.


The 26-year-old assailant has been identified as Bernard Polite. According to reports Polite entered the church around 1 p.m. on Sunday as Pastor Germany was live streaming his sermon.


Polite aimed his firearm at Germany and pulled the trigger, however a bigger force must have been in play as the weapon failed to discharge.


At this moment, a man from the congregation jumped into action and attempted to subdue Polite. Germany joined the fray and the two were able to disarm and subdue Polite.


Members of the congregation were able to detain Polite until troopers arrived and arrested him. It has been reported that as officers executed a search warrant on Polite's home a body was found on the premises. 

There are no reports at this time on who the deceased individual was or how he passed away.
