A FORMER EMPLOYEE accused of walking into a service at a suburban Atlanta megachurch and gunning down a church volunteer is scheduled to make his first appearance in court.
Fulton County sheriff’s spokeswoman Tracy Flanagan says 51-year-old Floyd Palmer will have an opportunity to ask for bond during the 11am hearing at the county jail.
Fulton County police Cpl Kay Lester said Thursday that police searched Palmer’s home overnight in Riverdale, south of Atlanta. She didn’t have details on what was found.
Police say Palmer entered a chapel at World Changers Church International in College Park shortly before 10am Wednesday and opened fire, killing church volunteer Greg McDowell.
The church’s well-known founder and leader, the Rev Creflo Dollar, was not there at the time.
