The wife of a DeKalb County, Georgia, pastor died Monday after being shot by a stray bullet while in bed on Wednesday, October 5, around 12:30 a.m.
The Atlanta Constitution-Journal reported Lashunda Heath-Ellison’s shooting, noting that she was rushed to the hospital after her husband and children noted she was unresponsive.
Her husband, Pastor Mac Ellison, said, “I stand here completely devastated, not knowing what is next but trusting God for everything,”
WSB-TV notes that pastor Mac Ellison awoke “to very heavy breathing” and “blood everywhere.”
He called in his children to help turn his wife, Lashunda, over. She was rushed to the hospital where they found a bullet in her head.
Pastor Ellison said, “It went through the headboard and right into the top of my wife’s head and stopped here in her sinus.”
