A man with a semi-automatic assault rifle walked into a downtown Fayetteville church during a New Year’s Eve prayer service.
The church’s pastor is City Councilman Larry Wright.
The incident at Heal the Land Outreach Ministries, off Campbell Avenue, ended peacefully, although many of the 60 members in attendance were startled, and at least one person — a pregnant woman — slipped out of the service.
Wright said he was able to calm the armed stranger, take away his weapon and then pray for him before Fayetteville police officers arrived.
