living at the church. It was not clear how many were rescued. The attack by a group of armed people “may have been motivated by a feud” among church members, police said.
The church is one of the largest — and reportedly richest — in
South Africa.
Photos showed more than a dozen men lying on the ground, subdued, along with rifles, pistols, a baseball bat and boxes of ammunition — including at least one marked “law enforcement.”
Among those arrested were members of the police, defense forces and correctional services.
The church headquarters has been the scene of violence between factions more than once in recent years, with shots fired, rocks thrown and cars smashed.
A man was wounded during a drive-by shooting in Brooklyn, with new surveillance video showing more than a dozen people running for cover as the gunman opened fire.
The video released by police Saturday shows a car slowing driving by a group of people hanging outside a Crown Heights apartment building just after 11 p.m. on Thursday.
A gunman wearing a surgical mask in the back seat fires at least five shots at the crowd on
St. Marks Ave. near Schenectady Ave., the video shows.
As people scrambled for cover, a 28-year-old man was shot in the buttocks, police said.
Medics took the wounded victim to Kings County Hospital, where he was treated and released.
Police said the gunman’s car either had a blue rear license plate or a blue light around the license plate. The sedan had no front plate, rims or hubcaps.
No arrests have been made.
