A churchgoer in Pennsylvania was killed after he was shot by a man when the two were fighting over a seat in church.
Robert Braxton had apparently sat in a chair that was reserved for two other churchgoers. A man tapped on his shoulder, to which Braxton responded by saying “Don’t [expletive] touch me,” according to an affidavit obtained by NBC Philadelphia.
The shooter, Mark Storms, then whipped out a gun and told Braxton to get out of his seat, and showed his Concealed Weapons Permit badge.
“When he came over, he had a gun out, escalating the situation,” district attorney Kevin Steele said at a press conference, according to NY Daily. “Braxton then took a swing at the defendant, punching him in the jaw.”
