A man has shot and killed a Catholic priest at his parish rectory in northeast Kansas

A Catholic priest was shot and killed Thursday by a man who approached him at his parish rectory in the town of Seneca, Kansas, church officials said.

“I am heartbroken to share the tragic news of the death of Fr. Arul Carasala, who was fatally shot earlier today," Archbishop Joseph Naumann, of the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas, said in a Facebook post. "This senseless act of violence has left us grieving the loss of a beloved priest, leader, and friend.”
