Pastor Marvin Winans Carjacked in Detroit
Pastor Marvin Winans, who this past Sunday instructed the congregation of his Detroit mega-church not to vote for President Obama in the next election because of his stance on same sex marriage, was carjacked at a gas station Wednesday afternoon on Detroit's west side...
According to reports Pastor Winans pulled into a gas station at Davison and Linwood driving a $72k QX56 SUV and wearing a $40k Presidential Rolex watch but left the station with neither of those things plus the robbers tore off his pants.
Pastor Winans told local media he had a bad feeling when he walked into the gas station and noticed several teens giving him the eye but decided to pump his gas anyway.
Native Detroiters wonder what Pastor Winans, who normally travels with bodyguards, was doing alone in that particularly rough part of town.
