A heavily pregnant mum and a five-year-old girl were among at least 26 worshippers shot dead when a gunman opened fire in a Texas church, it has emerged. The shooter, identified as 26-year-old Devin Patrick Kelley, entered the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs before firing at defenceless worshippers. The suspect, believed to be a married dad who was dishonourably discharged from the US Air Force, was reportedly found dead in an SUV after the massacre. The youngest victim of the massacre was a five-year-old and the oldest was a 72-year-old - but the death toll may rise, authorities have warned. The first confirmed victim was Annabelle Pomeroy, the 14-year-old daughter of the First Baptist church pastor Frank Pomeroy.
