HOUSTON –
Police in Texas said Sunday that they were responding to a possible shooting at the Houston megachurch run by prominent pastor Joel Osteen.
In a tweet on X, formerly known as Twitter, Lakewood Church said there was “an active situation involving shots fired” at the church.
“That is all the information we have at this time. Please pray for Lakewood and our community,” the church said.
Jodi Silva, a Houston police spokeswoman, said officers were responding to the church but she did not have any additional information.
Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said in a tweet on X that it was “believed that a possible shooter is down, shot by one of our deputy’s on-scene.”
Witnesses told reporters that they heard multiple shots fired as the church’s 2 p.m. Spanish language service was set to begin.
