Two people are reported dead and one is critical after a shooting at a church near Fort Worth.

It happened at the West Freeway Church of Christ in the 1900 block of south Las Vegas Trail in White Settlement.

A man reportedly entered the church with a gun during the morning service. Two people in the church were shot before another person in the church was able to shoot the suspect.

The shooting was caught on camera. A live stream of the service shows a man sitting among parishioners, then standing up and pulling out a gun. He appears to fire twice before someone shoots back and others rush toward him. The leader at West Freeway Church of Christ near Forth Worth is heard urging people to stay calm as they evacuated. 

Officials confirm two people were killed and a third -- possibly the gunman -- is in critical condition.

Police are continuing to investigate.
