(FOX NEWS) — Police responded Tuesday night to a Louisiana church where hundreds had congregated despite the state’s ban on gatherings of more than 50 people — part of the effort to stop the spread of coronavirus.
Tony Spell, pastor of Life Tabernacle Church in Baton Rouge, said no “dictator law” could keep people from worshipping God, according to the local news.
“The virus, we believe, is politically motivated,” Spell told WAFB. “We hold our religious rights dear and we are going to assemble no matter what someone says.”
