This Pastor prevented what could have been a huge tragedy – all in the name of ‘allah’.
BULLARD, TX (KLTV) – Forty-year-old Rasheed Abdul Aziz was arrested Sunday for allegedly threatening the Corinth Missionary Baptist Church in Bullard. Aziz had a gun, was wearing a camouflage helmet, camo pants, tactical vest and boots when entered the church around one o’clock.
According to Pastor John Johnson, Aziz appeared distressed and said that god had told him to “slay infidels.”“He said people are going to die today, that’s what he said to me,” says Johnson.
Johnson says Aziz entered the church through a side door, ended up in the conference room where Johnson and others were.
The conversation with Aziz lasted about 5 minutes, and in those five minutes, Aziz reportedly told Pastor Johnson he was representing Allah and god had sanctioned him to kill and slay people. During that conversation, Johnson says that he was able to see that Aziz had a gun.
“Immediately my mind went to the fact that I knew we had several children and young members that were playing and running in the fellowship hall, I mouthed to them, this man has a weapon, I need you guys to go.”
