This is the makings of a nightmare!
Pastor Glenn Germany was livestreaming his sermon on Facebook Watch Sunday — as he usually does for homebound parishioners every week. He was standing onstage at Jesus Dwelling Place Church in Pennsylvania when a shock rang through the sanctuary — a man walked up to the front of the stage and pulled out a gun! In the video, a man can be seen holding a pistol up and aiming it at Germany in the middle of his teachings, causing the Pastor to duck and run behind the pulpit!

Luckily, by what churchgoers are calling an act of God, the gun seemed to jam when the trigger was pulled. It didn’t fire at all! This gave Deacon Clarence McCallister just enough time to run up and overpower the gunman, wrestling him to the ground. Pastor Germany then runs back out and joins in on the struggle himself, retrieving the weapon from the man. Wild!
See the shocking video for yourself (below):
Pennsylvania State Police were able to arrest the suspect, identifying him as Bernard Junior Polite. They confirmed the gun “failed to discharge” which is likely what saved the Pastor’s life! The suspect has been charged with criminal attempt, criminal homicide, aggravated assault, and recklessly endangering another person, according to People.
Horrifyingly, though, a life was still lost. When law enforcement searched Bernard’s home, they found the body of 56-year-old Derek Polite, who was reportedly fatally shot. No charges have been formally filed in relation to the body, however. The gunman is currently being held at Allegheny County Jail.
WTAE obtained a criminal complaint against Polite in which he reportedly revealed why he

Marta Balaga German Films celebrated its 70th anniversary at Cannes on Sunday, with its guests looking back but also looking forward. “It has gotten much better,” Managing Director Simone Baumann told Variety at the event. “We’ve had Oscar-winning ‘All Quiet on the Western Front,’ Oscar-nominated ‘The Teachers’ Lounge’ [for best international feature], films by Wim Wenders and with Sandra Hüller!
