Just to clear up information mis-reported by the media, the church member who stopped the gunman was never in the FBI.
His name is Jack Wilson and he was a reserve deputy from 1980-86. He also ran a firearms training academy and range from 1995 until it burned down in 2016 due to an electrical fire. He had tried to rebuild but some local residents opposed it.
He is an armed citizen who quickly identified and eliminated a threat to the congregation.
