On Sunday afternoon, the pastor who delivered the invocation during Ted Cruz's rally was reported to have been shot in the parking lot of an Idaho church by Kyle Odom.

Cruz is probably the only candidate in the Republican party who has the chance to possibly thwart Donald Trump's good run, no wonder so many people are supporting his cause. However, one of his supporters, Tim Remington, was shot less than 24 hours after delivering the invocation for the Republican's campaign rally.

According to People, police said the gunman escaped from the scene in a 2004 Honda Accord and had been nowhere in sight until the authorities confirmed that he was captured on Tuesday.

While Pastor Remington has regained consciousness and is in stable condition, the latest updates on the perpetrator have been revealed.

According to The Guardian, Odom was arrested in Washington DC. A secret service statement says the 30-year-old was seized after he "threw unknown material over the south fence line at the White House complex." Coeur d'Alene police have confirmed his arrest and the authorities are looking into his motives for shooting the 55-year-old reverend.

Coeur d'Alene chief of police Lee White said on Monday that it appears Odom's stint was a "pre-planned attack," adding that "some details surrounding Mr. Odom's planning are disturbing."

John Padula, outreach pastor for the church where Remington is senior pastor, said that Odom was not connected to the church before he attended the services on Sunday, meaning he was a first-time visitor in the church, giving further confusion regarding his true motives.

Remington has been working with treating people who profess of drug and alcohol addiction, and along with the help of his wife, he established various programs to help rehabilitate people like Padula who fell victims to drugs and alcoholism.

Odom, on the other hand, is a former Marine who has received various awards and even served in Iraq. The suspect, who has a biochemistry degree from the University of Idaho, will remain under police custody until further details are revealed regarding the first-degree attempted murder charge filed against him.
