As I recall there was a woman in Colorada that was a member of the church security team. She drew on a shooter and shot him.

here's another:
Following an argument with friends a few blocks away, 29-year-old Kiarron Parker raced his car across the parking lot of the New Destiny Christian Center just as Sunday services had ended.
