Today a 3 year old little girl tragically lost both of her parents, 10 year old stepbrother and 13 year old stepsister. In Fort Worth a man shot his wife and stepchildren. He spared his biological daughter by taking her to a Baptist Church in Arlington, where his sister was employed. When they arrived they were both covered in blood splatter. He told her that he had killed some people and was going to kill more. After he left she called the police. He then parked in the driveway of a home a couple of blocks from an Arlington elementary school. The police surrounded his vehicle, put the elementary school on lockdown and evacuated the neighborhood. For several hours he sat in the vehicle and communicated with the police. Around 7:30 this evening he maneuvered around the armored vehicle blocking him in the driveway and led the police on a 10 mile chase before driving his vehicle off the boat ramp into Lake Arlington and committing suicide.
My son had just concluded his lesson as the chase started, they passed right by the parking lot that my son was in. My husband called to let me know that the suspect vehicle, 27 police cruisers, several helicopters and the armored vehicle were on the move. I changed the channel in time to see the car drive into Lake Arlington and began to sink almost immediately.
Tonight I ask you to pray for the countless numbers of children who are beaten and or murdered by the same people who are meant to be their protectors.
