And how ap preesh yapreciative i am of all of the people who came together in a tragic situation, a horrific situation, and one that has touched the heart and soul of every person who lives in this community. Authorities say that 21yearold dylann roof was arrested in shelby North Carolina during a traffic stop. Earlier they the released this picture of roof from police surveillance. They say that he spent an hour in prayer before shooting the people. The people included in the shooting were three males and six females. Three people survived the shooting, and among those killed were the churchs pastor the reverend Clementa Pinckney and he was also a South Carolina state senator, and prominent civil rights activist. The shooting at the church is being investigated as a hate crime. A friend of the pastor who was killed says that it was. Anyone who would go into a church, and of course, race is a factor, and this is a young white male and historically africanamerican church, and commits this type of act, it is a hate crime, and it is is hate and pure hate. One of the things that we have to take this moment that we have to yuzuse this moment for is to the heal as a country and not just South Carolina, but it is the United States. Just a short time the ago president obama responded to what he called the senseless murder s murders in charleston. He said that this incident is especially tough to the come to the grips with. To say our thoughts and prayers are with them and their families and their community doesnt say enough to convey the heartache and the sadness and the anger that we feel. Any death of this sort is a tragedy tragedy. Any shooting involving multiple vick victims is a tragedy. Theres something particularly heartbreaking about a death happening in a place in which we seek solace and we seek peace in a place of worship. The president also said that the tragedy should revive efforts for stronger gun control in the United States. The shooting turned a place of sanctuary into a scene of terror. Now lets get some perspective of healing in the community from our correspondent john berman, and john, tell us more about how the suspect was apprehended there. There. He was apprehended about three hours away from where i am standing in shelby North Carolina. That is mother emanuel episcopalian africanamerican church. It began about 14 1 2 hours ago when this suspect came in and lingered here in this average wens wednesday night prayer meeting and he lingered for about an hour before he opened up fire, and sources say that he did say at the time that he wanted to kill black people. Nine people dead, six women and three men, and the only victim whose ide the ti that we know at this point, the reverend Clementa Pinckney and also a state senator, the and also a man who has two young sons, and so many people that i have spoken to on the streets here they know him so well and they miss him so badly especially today when they need leaders to heal this community. It set off a frenzied manhunt here all through the night. Streets were shutdown until he was apprehended. And about an hour and a half ago, there was a press conference here in charleston, and Martin Savidge who is here with me, he was there at the press conference and what did you learn . I was there and i talked to the police chief mullen who was extremely worry died and i asked him how he was doing, and he said very worry died, and as anyone knows anyone who would go into a house of worship and kill people was on the street, they knew that the longer this manhunt went on they knew that a violent showdown would increase, and remarkably, the way that the arrest went down was one Police Officer in shelby North Carolina and by a tip that came from a person who just called in and said hey, a suspicious vehicle here and comes down to the basic communeity involvement, and local Law Enforcement, and traffic stop and apparently cooperative, and most thankful no further loss of life in all of this. Was he armed a at the time . Any incident in the arrest and any word of how he got from here to four hours away in shelby North Carolina . All the questions i put to the e chief, and he said that he cooperated so it implied a peaceful arrest and no violence and doesnt appear to be any struggle and he was inside of the vehicle and there was a weapon confiscated, and that is all they will the tell you about the weapon, and not that it is a rifle or handgun and not that if it is the weapon that was used in the attack at the church and now they stop short of any details that is going to be in the prosecutorial part. And now, what about this man who walked into the lexington area. And they said he was not on the watch list, and we had not been following him, and local Law Enforcement was not aware of him, and nothing significant and a couple of arrest, but nothing of significance to suggest that this would happen. And they believe that he acted alone. I asked if it was a conspiracy and they said, no, they believe it was him, am only him. And what was the success of the Law Enforcement to get the footage and then identify the man in the footage and then get it to the media,ed and they were thanking the the media for getting this image out, and thanked the public for everyones assistance in the investigation. They said it from the beginning, and look we want to inform the public and inform the media and most of all we want to get your help to get the word out. That is is the way it went down. Clearly someone up there in North Carolina had heard about the incident and maybe knew about the identity of the vehicle, and that is what tipped them off. It was a suspicious vehicle reported, and that is what brought the police, and that is how it all came to an end. The next step is extradition back here from North Carolina to South Carolina and that is not going to be overly complicated. Martin savidge on the investigation, and new details coming in. Wolf back to you. Thank you, john and Martin Savidge, thank you both. And we will get back to you. Meanwhile, the mourners and those shocked by the events, they gathered at churches around the state the of South Carolina to unite in prayer. In Charleston Morris brown ame chur church hosted the gathering for those who wanted to pray or come to grips with the violence that rocked their city. Alee Alina Machado is on the scene joining with more, and how is it going over there, alina . Well, wolf, things are starting to wrap up here, and i have to tell you that there is all of the talk for the need of unity the follow gre following the tragic event. And what you are seeing is hundreds of people gathering inside of the morris brown ame church for prayer vijgil and when it ended people stuck around outside. What you are seeing is the area of overflow and incredibly hot out here today, and they offered people a place to go down the street that was cool but everyone e decided to stay here. They sang together. They are mourning together and they are praying together. There are people here as you can see from what is left of the crowd, and people here from all walks of life, and all ages and races and backgrounds, and they are all saying the same thing. When i asked them about the reaction to the fact that dylann roof is in custody, they expressed relief of that and they are also saying that the healing here is going to take a very long time. I spoke to one woman in particular who said something very, very defining here of this moment and she said that even though she hates what he is accused of doing that she cant go on hating him as a person, wolf. All right. Alina, very, very sad time over there, and thank you. The pastor of the africanamerican episcopal chump was one of nine victims of the shoot g shooting, and he is being remembered. Flowers resting on the desk of Clementa Pinckney in the United States senate and he was the youngest black person ever elected to the legislature in the state of South Carolina, and the church that pinckney led was steeped with historic significance as he explained in 2013. Where you are is a very special place in charleston. And it is very special place, because this church, and this site this area has been tied to the history and life of africanamericans since about t the early 1800s. This church was built in 1891. The congregation was formed in 1818 by the reverend morris brown who later became the second bishop of the african methodist Episcopal Church. And for you who know about the denomination we started in 1887 through our founder Richard Allen who left then st. Georges Episcopal Church because they told him to pray after the regular members prayed, and that is how the nomination began in a fit of civil disobedience and a little issue with the theological fairness, if you will. And we are just getting this into cnn and we are have learnlearning the names of two more victims. Tyanza sanders is a graduate of Allen University in columbia South Carolina, and he is the youngest victim and the reverend pinckney the state senator, and he was also a graduate of Allen University in columbia South Carolina and among the others who were killed sharonda who was a speech pathologist and a track coach who was seen here with her son. And we are sending is our deepest sympathies. We will get more thoughts when we come bakck. Up to daiday and the heart and soul of South Carolina was broken. Nikki haley the governor of South Carolina very, very emotional moment for her, indeed for everyone watching not only here in the United States but indeed the around the world. The police in South Carolina say that the attack was in fact, a hate crime, and the shooter saying that he simply wanted to kill black people. In responseb bernice king who is the daughter of Martin Luther king jr. Said that we must interrupt business as usual and change the trajectory of the nation, and the soul of the nation must be saved charlesshoot ging. And the best path to the save our nation is through nonviolence, and it is more than a tactic but a lifestyle, and that what she tweeted, bernice king. And the ceo of the king center is on the phone right now. Bernice, i know it is a sad moment, and your father, Martin Luther king was very familiar with this church in South Carolina, and the tell us about that. Yes. I mean doing the whole quest for Voting Rights, and he had the opportunity to the visit the Emanuel Ame Church to raise the awareness of voting and getting people involved in all of the mass demonstrations of the Voting Rights and so that chur church was one of his stops as a part of that. It is the Oldest Black Church in the southern part of the United States. A lot of history there. And when you heard about this hate crime today, bernice, what went through your mind . Well well let me just say this wolf the first thing that really ran through my mind is that we have to find a way in america to change the culture of vie violence that all of us, i think, have a responsibility to look at what we are doing to the perpetuate it and how we can change it. But as i was thinking and it, i reflected back 41 years ago on june 30th, my grandfather, and my fathers mother who was killed by a gunman and by a gunman who said that he was on assignment to christians and he had my father on the list, but just happened to slain my grandmother who was saying the lords prayer and i just happened to go back to that period and fast forwarding to 41 years later, and looking at the fact that we are at a serious crossroad in this nation. We must do something to change the value system in the culture and begin to really highlight the importance of life all life and especially right now with a lot of the black lives which says there is no sake ret place or safe place for black life even in the context of the church. So i continue to push as my father did the philosophy of the nonviolence, and it is because it is not just a social justice tool or tactic but it is a way of life. It is as more of us embrace it as a way of life we can relieve some of the vieolence we are seeing in the nation and world ultimately. You heard president obama bernice, speak out emotional lyly from the white house, but he also used it as moment once again to speak out in favor of more gun control in the United States saying that in rather blunt terms that what happened here doesnt happen in other industrialized countries, because of the availability, i assume he meant, of guns. Are you with the president on this . I agree on it wholeheartedly but i also say that while we work on gun control, we also have to work on changing our lifestyles, because at the end of the day the, even when guns go away if they ever go away there are other methods that people can utilize to exercise physical acts of violence, and so it is really about nonviolence 365 being permeated throughout our culture, and we are involved constantly at the king center in educating and training all individuals in my fathers philosophy and methodology in the way in which we engage our lives on a daily basis and social movements. Bernice is this going to result in greater security and armed guards at historically black churches around the country . I really cant speak to that. I mean, it may. At least for a temporary period of time. I remember when my grandmother was shot and this is unheard of in 1974 when she was killed at our church. We had to bring in metal detectors for a period of time and obviously, during that time period there was not a lot of killings in our communities, period but people were so traumatized that even they heard some kind of pop in the church you know people would jump. So i think that for a temporary period of time it sis probably something that many people would look at doing, and not just in the africanamerican churches that they may consider that in all churches, because it seems that we are violating the lines and blurring the lines between what is sacred and what is not. Bernice king is the chief executive officer of the king center in atlanta, and the daugt daughter of the late Coretta Scott king and the late Martin Luther king jr and i wish that we were speaking on different circumstances. Thank you, wolf. And we will also speak to the memory of the pastor Clementa Pinckney one of the victims of victims of this heinous, heinous crime.

One of the things that i have seen so far here tonight is everybody praying together, and it didnt matter what color you were and everybody pray ging together and joining hands, and we are going to the continue to do that. And pastor Clementa Pinckney has been identify edied as one of the nine victims of the Church Shooting massacre in South Carolina and he was also a state senator who championed change after the shooting of Charles Scott who was an unarmed black man who was shot in the back by a white policeman. And as reform, he stepped up to call for an end to police corruption. We need a better, more comprehensive and fairer tax system but most importantly, we need every person in South Carolina needs to know that they will have equal protection under the law, and that a badge and a gun is not going to give someone superiority or will trump their constitutionally protect eded privileges and rights in South Carolina. Joining us now from charleston is the reverend john paul broun, pastor of the mount zion ame, and pastor pinckneys chur church is only four blocks from where this massacre occurred and again, i wish that we were meeting under different circumstances, and first of all, can you tell us about your friend. First let me give thanks to the leadership of our bishop, bish Bishop Richard franklin norris, and to the community and to chief mullen and also to mayor riley and Governor Haley for what they have doenne. Senatorreverend pinckney, and i became his past
