ASHTABULA, Ohio (AP) ? Witnesses say the 25-year-old man accused of walking into an Ohio church and fatally shooting his father after an Easter service was yelling about God and Allah after the killing.
Police say Reshad Riddle walked into the Hiawatha Church of God in Christ in Ashtabula and killed his father, 52-year-old Richard Riddle, with a single shot from a handgun Sunday afternoon.
Associate Pastor Sean Adams tells The (Ashtabula) Star Beacon newspaper (http://bit.ly/10rk63k ) that worshippers started screaming, ducking down and calling 911 on cellphones after the shooting.
Adams says Reshad Riddle then continued into the church, still holding the gun, and yelled that the killing was "the will of Allah. This is the will of God."
Reshad Riddle was quickly subdued by officers, who arrived just moments after the shooting. Police say he offered no motive for the shooting.
Court records show Reshad Riddle has an extensive criminal record.
