He was then detained by the churchgoers who tied him up with an electrical cord before the police arrived.

Jeff Hallock, the Orange County Undersheriff, said that the group of churchgoers displayed exceptional heroism and bravery in stopping the suspect, and prevented additional injuries and fatalities.

One of the victims died at the scene, with the other five wounded being sent to the hospital.
