A police officer stands guard inside the St. Francis Catholic Church, a day after an attack that targeted worshipers attending Mass for the Solemnity of Pentecost in Owo, Nigeria, June 6. The gunmen who killed 50 people opened fire on worshippers both inside and outside the building in a coordinated attack before escaping the scene, authorities and witnesses said.
