BREAKING: Shots Fired at Manhattan Cathedral During Christmas Concert — Ends in Officer Involved Shooting

A Christmas concert at the Manhattan Cathedral of St. John the Divine ended in gunfire on Sunday afternoon.

The incident culminated in a man, presumably the shooter, being shot by police.

The Associated Press reports, “it’s unclear if the gunman was killed or if any others were injured. The shooting happened just before 4 p.m. at the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine, mother church of the Episcopal Diocese of New York and seat of its bishop.”

The cathedral is currently closed for indoor mass, but was hosting a Christmas carol performance on the front steps at 3 p.m.
