Black Church And Is Now On The Run!!!!!!!!
BHR Hollywood Reports........An intense manhunt was underway Thursday for a white gunman who opened fire on Wednesday night at a historic black church in this city’s downtown, killing nine people before fleeing.

The police chief, Greg Mullen, called the shooting a hate crime.

The gunman walked into the historic Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church and attended the meeting for about an hour before open firing.

Six females and three males were killed, police said.

Though authorities did not release the names of the victims, the church’s pastor, Clementa Pinckney, who is also a South Carolina state senator, was missing after the shooting, and some members of the congregation feared the worst.

Indeed, House Minority Leader Todd Rutherford said Pinckney was among the dead, and friends started posting “RIP” condolences on social media.

“The is a situation that is unacceptable in any society, especially in our society and our city,” Chief Mullen said at an early morning news conference. “We are leaving no stone unturned.”

Police said the shooting occurred at about 9 p.m. at the historic church, which is located between Henrietta and Calhoun streets near Marion Square in downtown Charleston.

 Emergency dispatchers received a call at about 9:05 p.m., police said, and units were immediately dispatched to the church.

When officers arrived, they determined that eight people had been killed inside the church, Mullen said.

A ninth person was taken to a nearby hospital, where that person died, the police chief said.

Police initially said a total of two people had been taken to the hospital, but clarified later that there was only one.

The Rev. Norvel Goff, a presiding elder for the African Methodist Episcopal Church who was interviewed near the scene, said the suspect “walked in, from my understanding, not so much as a participant, but as a brief observer who then stood up and then started shooting.”

“It’s a very tragic situation,” Goff said. “Stressful. Grieving.”
