A small Texas community is grieving after a gunman opened fire in a church, leaving at least 26 dead.
A vigil was held Sunday night for the lives lost at the shooting at First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs, about 40 miles southeast of San Antonio. The victims ranged in age from 5 to 72 years old. Pastor Frank Pomeroy had been in Oklahoma, but his 14-year-old daughter, Annabelle Renee Pomeroy, was killed.
