The Houston Police Department and Houston Fire Department are responding to reports of a shooting at pastor Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church in the city, officials said. Police responded to reports of a shooting at 3700 Southwest Freeway — the address of Lakewood Church — this afternoon at around 2:24 p.m. local time, the department said on X. Fire Department spokesperson Martee Black confirmed the fire department is responding to a shooting at Lakewood Church.
'That is all the information we have at this time. Please pray for Lakewood and our community.' Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said on X, 'info remains preliminary, as things remain dynamic.' It is believed the possible shooter was shot by one of the deputies on scene and is down, Gonzalez said. A woman named Maria who is from Colombia and witnessed the shooting said she heard the first shot fired about eight minutes before a church service started.
