Police received a call at about 5 PM local time about a man stabbing people and arrived to find the suspect wielding a knife outside the church.
A police statement said officers tried to arrest the suspect without success and fired multiple rounds from a bean bag shotgun in an attempt to control him yesterday.
The man, who police would not identify, was shot and killed when he "turned his attention to a woman who was standing nearby and he began to stab her," the statement said.
