Atlanta, GA, United States (4E) – One man was fatally wounded after a gunman opened fire Wednesday morning inside a church in Atlanta, Georgia.

According to the Fulton County Police, a call came in at 9:55 a.m. reporting a shooting at World Changers Church International in College Park, Atlanta, after an unidentified gunman entered and started firing.

It was reported that there are normal services every Wednesday at 10 a.m., but it was not confirmed how many church-goers were inside when the incident happened.

Fulton County police spokeswoman Cpl. Kay Lester said the unnamed victim was rushed to a nearby hospital where he later died.

It was unclear if he is a member of the church.

The suspect remains at large.

The golden-domed church is run by prosperity minister Creflo Dollar and claims to have 30,000 members.

No description of the suspect has been released.

Lester announced that investigation is ongoing.
