After deadly Kroger shooting, church will allow guns on premises, according to The Washington Post

The church, called First Baptist Church, is welcoming anyone with law enforcement--or a permit--to bring a gun inside the church.

LOUISVILLE (WHAS11) -- An historically black church in Jeffersontown, where an accused gunman tried to get in before shooting and killing two people at a nearby Kroger, is welcoming guns on their premises, according to a report by The Washington Post.

The church, called First Baptist Church, is welcoming anyone with law enforcement--or a permit--to bring a gun inside the church during services and bible study as long as they notify the church.

In October, police said Gregory Bush shot and killed Vickie Lee Jones and Maurice Stallard at a Louisville Kroger.

Bush is charged with two counts of murder.
