"Of course, we're devastated. We don't understand why these things happen," Joel Osteen said.

A woman wearing a trenchcoat and armed with a long rifle was fatally shot by law enforcement officers after allegedly opening fire at Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church on Sunday afternoon.

According to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, the reported shooting happened in the 3700 block of the Southwest Freeway, at Lakewood Church.

Joel Osteen, who cofounded Lakewood Church, said they were in between services, going into the Spanish service when the shooting started.
