Dallas County District Attorney Michael Jackson says James Minter was arrested after the shooting on Sunday at the Oasis Church in East Selma, Alabama. Neither Minter's age or hometown were immediately available.
Jackson says the shooting stems from a domestic issue between Minter and the woman and that race was not a factor.
Jackson says the pastor is white, while Minter and the two other victims are black. Jackson says Minter is being held without bond at the Dallas County jail.
