Authorities are investigating after explosive material was found in a car on the parking lot of Brown Missionary Baptist Church in Southaven Thursday evening.
Bartholomew Orr, senior pastor, said Friday that Southaven police spotted a man who church security had been monitoring as he entered a back parking lot of the church on State Line Road.
Inside his car, authorities found explosive materials that were confiscated. The unidentified man was taken into custody, Orr said.
Orr described the individual taken into custody as a “suspicious character” who was not a member of the church but who had been monitored because he had been seen around the church property.
The suspect is white. The church’s membership is predominantly African American.

frick that guy.
But I do find it interesting that they managed to give the suspect's race and potential victims' race here.
It's usually quite hard to find out that info with other crimes.

I'm sure everyone will go off the deep end before we get all the facts.

Call me skeptical but "car full of explosives" could be that he had a couple of m80's and was going to vandalize the church.
Still needed to be caught but we shall see. Maybe more is posted in the link. I don't like to click links.

Hell he could have been a landscaper and had ammonium nitrate and some diesel fuel on his work trailer

I thought it could be fireworks as well.
Of course, he could have been just a weird dude that stopped off at a random location but I'm sure he'll be a blood thirsty grand wizard terrorist by this afternoon.

I've never been to a church that had its own security.

This certainly seems at first glance like a bunch of bullshite.

I can garuntee you that this will get more news coverage than the active shooter at lackland.
Eventhough nothing actually exploded and not one person got hurt, this will be on the news for atleast a week as the primary story.
Just because the guy arrested was white and it was a black church
