COOKEVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
A man was killed and a woman was injured in a shooting at a Cookeville church Sunday morning.
Just after 9 a.m., Putnam County officials received reports of an active shooter at Double Springs Community Church on Double Springs Road in Cookeville.
When the Putnam County Sheriff's Department SWAT Team responded, they found a woman with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. They also found a male subject, dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. SWAT also found a second woman, who was uninjured.
The three people were found in the basement of the church.

4. Gun fanciers will use such killings to justify their packing in churches and elsewhere.
