Sister of slain pastor pleads for witness tips

Deputies are searching for the person responsible for killing a local pastor and another man outside his place of worship, which is also used as a banquet hall. A candlelight vigil took place outside the hall on Tuesday. They gathered in memory of Pastor Jonathan Frazier of Roam Ministries, lighting candles where he died.

An Orlando pastor has died days after being shot at a banquet hall in Pine Hills over the weekend, the Orange County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday. 

Jonathan Frazier, 36, the spiritual leader of Roam Ministry in Orlando, was shot on June 24 at a gathering at the Unity Banquet Hall off Hiawassee Road, officials said. Frazier was taken to a hospital where he died of his injuries Monday. 

Three others were also hit by the gunfire. A victim identified as Willie Bell Jr. died of his injuries. Two others – both men in their late 20s – had non-life-threatening injuries, deputies said.
