Texas police have arrested an armed man dressed in tactical-style clothing who was on his way to a church where he claimed he would 'fulfill a prophecy'.
Tony Dwayne Albert II, 33, was arrested in Seguin, a suburb outside San Antonio, after a passerby saw the man carrying a handgun outside on just before 7am on Sunday and called police.
An off-duty Seguin officer responded to the call and found Albert armed with a loaded handgun.

Seguin Police shared this post on Sunday thanking the citizen who called the cops on Albert saying: 'If this subject was not stopped and apprehended the results could have ended differently'
Officers found 'an oddly dressed male wearing tactical style clothing, a surgical face shield, carrying a loaded firearm and extra ammunition', according Officer Tanya Brown.
He reportedly told cops he was on his way to the church to 'fulfill...a prophecy'.
He was arrested for possession of marijuana and possession of a firearm.
Albert was taken to Guadalupe County Jail. As of Sunday afternoon he remained in prison on $100,000 bond, according to the Huffington Post.
Seguin Police say that the citizen who reported Albert helped stop a potentially devastating massacre.
'This morning, the Seguin Police Department is extremely grateful to the citizen who called police. If this subject was not stopped and apprehended the results could have ended differently,' Officer Brown added.
Cops are not sure what he meant by fulfilling a prophecy. The church he was targeting has not been identified.
However he was arrested near where The Door Christian Church is located.
'We don’t know what he meant. What ties he has to Seguin, I have no idea yet,' Brown added.
Albert is from Houston, about a two and a half hour and 161-mile drive from Seguin.
Albert has a lengthy rap sheet.
He was arrested at least six times in Harris County on various charges that date back to when he was 24 in 2009, according to MySanAntonio.com.
He was convicted four times for driving while intoxication, possession of marijuana under two ounces, assaulting a family member causing bodily injuring and disarming a police officer.
He's currently on two years probation after pleading no contest to disarming the cop.
The Seguin Police Department arrested him around the 2400 W. Kingsbury St. in Seguin
According to past court filings he was associated with Messianic Judaism and the First Church of Cannabis.
The Texas Rangers, FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are all assisting the investigation of Albert.
Over the past couple of years there have been several devastating mass murders in places of worship at the hands of lone wolf gunmen.
In October the Pittsburgh synagogue Tree of Life was ambushed by suspect Robert Gregory Bowers and 11 people were killed and seven injured.
In November 2017 there was the Sutherland Springs church shooting in Texas where gunman 26-year-old Devin Patrick Kelley shot dead 25 people.
Two years prior in June 2015, white supremacist Dylann Roof entered a predominantly black church in Charleston, South Carolina and killed nine people.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
