(CNN) Two people were wounded by gunfire Saturday morning during a wedding in a small-town New Hampshire church, authorities said.

Two people were shot when a gunman opened fire during a wedding at New England Pentecostal Ministries in Pelham, New Hampshire on Saturday, October 12, police said.

The state attorney general's office said a 911 caller reported a man walked into New England Pentecostal Ministries in Pelham "and shot at the presiding bishop."

When officers arrived at the church just after 10 a.m. Saturday, wedding guests had subdued the male suspect, Pelham Police Chief Joseph Roark said at a news conference.

"From my understanding," he said, "they basically gang-tackled him."

Dale Holloway, 37, was charged with first-degree assault, the state attorney general's office said in a news release. He is scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday.
