Investigators say Gabriella Shepherd told 911 dispatchers she had accidentally shot her husband. By the end of the night, she was in jail facing homicide charges.
Noah Shepard was the pastor at San Diego Reformed Presbyterian Church in Rolando. Members of his congregation are still in shock over Noah’s death.
“He cared about people. He cared about those who suffer, those who struggle, those who have issues in their life,” said Colin Samul, a fellow pastor and friend.
“When I heard the details of what happened I was numb. There are no words,” said Erik O'Dell, a friend who attended seminary school with Noah in Escondido.
