BALTIMORE-- A gunman burst into Maryland church service Sunday night and robbed several worshipers.
Police said the man wearing dark clothing and a ski mask was waving a handgun when he barged into the Mt. Zion United Methodist Church in the Baltimore suburb of Bel Air. About 50 gay people were attending the service.
The gay pastor said the robber ordered several lesbians and their lovers to go up the aisles getting purses and wallets. He gathered them in a bag before leaving.
Several worshipers called police on their cell phones after the robber fled. There were no injuries.
