DALLAS -- Police were investigating a shooting inside an Oak Cliff church.

It happened around 2 a.m. Saturday morning at the Church of Revelation in Dallas.

The deacon of the church heard a noise, met a prowler in the hall and shot him, police said.

Investigators said they found a small broken window where the suspect may have broken in.

Police said there have been other churches that have been burglarized in the area.

The deacon has been released. A grand jury will decide if any charges will be filed.

"Church of the Resurrected .45". Well, the Sikhs have their daggers.

I caught a few minutes of one of those old Charles Bronson Death Wish movies the other day. It was the one where Charles is a vigilante going around shooting criminals. He catches some guys making a dope deal in an abandoned hotel. One of the guys is wearing a wooden cross around his neck. He asks "Do you believe in Jesus". The guy says, "Yes sir, I do". And Charles says, "Good, because you are going to meet him". And shoots him with a .380 Beretta.

Oh ya, it was a one shot stop.

The criminal can start praying for his life right away.

The only place where you get your "Miranda Rights" and "Last Rites" read simultaneously. Is the confession admissible?
