Pastor gets tased in a freak free for all church brawl,

[moobu2]

and the Deacon stabbed mother of minister of music, Simone Moore.

GRAND BAY, Ala. (WALA) - The Mobile County Sheriff's Office was called to New Welcome Baptist Church on Boe Road August 7 in reference to a tasing and stabbing.

Lori Myles with the Sheriff's Office said a fight broke out when Pastor Daryl Riley told the minister of music, Simone Moore, he was no longer needed for his position and handed him his final check.

Apparently, Moore wasn’t pleased with the amount.

“At that point, the minister of music, Mr. Moore, tased the pastor and then other people got involved, and I think it just escalated from that point,” said Myles.

Several church members were involved in the fight, including Moore's mother, Agolia Moore. She was apparently stabbed by one of the church's deacons, Harvey Hunt.

“When too many emotions get involved and you don’t let the right process follow ... They should have called law enforcement, and they could have handled it from that point,” said Myles.

Simone De Moore, an eighth-grade public school teacher and musician from Mobile, has become the second Democrat seeking to challenge Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Tuscaloosa, in this November's general election.

"The people's voices are not being heard," Moore, 45, said in a phone interview this morning when asked why he is running. A married father of three who is making his first run for elected office, Moore teaches at Pillans Middle School in Mobile and plays Hammond organ at two area churches.

Moore, who also performs rhythm and blues under the stage name "Simone De," released his second CD in 2007, according to a Press-Register review at the time.
