Dallas mall shooter: Who is Mauricio Garcia?

More on this story from yesterday.

[FoxNews] FBI agents searched the Dallas mall shooting suspect's home Sunday morning

Law enforcement sources have identified the suspect in Saturday's deadly mall shooting in Allen, Texas that left eight dead and several others injured as Mauricio Garcia.

Garcia, 33, is from Dallas, Texas, according to records obtained by Fox News Digital. The suspect’s age, address, and vehicle matches the description of details law enforcement provided.

Garcia's last known location was at a motel approximately 30 miles south of the shooting at Allen Premium Outlets in Dallas.

An email account called "deathdestructionandlove" was listed in association with Garcia in records obtained by Fox News Digital.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told Dallas' WFAA that Mauricio Garcia served in the U.S. Army but was removed because of mental health concerns.

Yet another nutter.

The governor called the mall attack an "unspeakable tragedy." He later joined a community vigil to honor the victims.

"As this community heals, Texas will be with you every step of the way," he said.

The suspect's brother, Christian Garcia, whose address is listed as that of Mauricio’s per records obtained, has several criminal records, including burglary of habitation and public intoxication.

A law enforcement official speaking on condition of anonymity told The Associated Press that federal officials are looking into whether Mauricio Garcia was motivated by white supremacist or neo-Nazi ideologies, but did not elaborate. The federal official cautioned that the investigation is still in its early stages.

The source said federal officials were reviewing social media accounts believed to be used by Garcia to express interest in extremist views. Garcia also had a patch on his chest that read, "RWDS" – supposedly an acronym for "Right Wing Death Squad," which is popular among far-right, the source said.

The source reportedly added that federal agents have interviewed family members and associates of Garcia to ask about his ideological beliefs.

Multiple FBI agents reported to a home in the Northeast Patrol division of Dallas, with several Dallas Police officers standing outside, according to KHOU. Multiple sources told the outlet the home is where the suspected 30-something-year-old shooter lives with his parents.

The agents were reportedly speaking with family inside the home, according to KHOU. A translator was reportedly requested by the family.

FBI agents also joined police Sunday morning to search the suspect's home, where neighbors said he has been living for years.

Neighbors also told WFAA that he could often be seen going to and from the house in an outfit that suggested a security role. Despite the regular sightings, neighbors added that both the man and his gray Dodge Charger had frequently been missing in recent weeks.

Neighbors also told KHOU they didn't recall any sort of police activity or problems at the house. They noted he was very quiet but did notice certain unusual and quiet behaviors.

The shooter began his rampage at roughly 3:30 p.m. local time, with security footage showing the man exiting what appears to be a gray Dodge Charger.

A police officer at the mall heard the gunshots and rushed toward the sound. The officer then engaged the shooter and killed him.

Six victims were declared dead at the scene, while two more died of their injuries during or after transportation to a hospital. Seven people remain injured from the attack and three were still in critical condition as of Sunday morning.

#2 The AP formulation of a Mexican White Supremacist seems like wish-casting.

#6 OK, DooDah, let me explain:
The Eurasian landmass is huge, and Spain is at the far western end of it, so Hispanic is Asian.
Got it?

#11 Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told Dallas' WFAA that Mauricio Garcia served in the U.S. Army but was removed because of mental health concerns.

And that was not a red flag that would have prevented him from legally purchasing a gun of any sort let alone an AR-15? And what about that illegal alien, deported from the country three times previously, who shot five people who lived next door to him in Texas? How do these guys get these weapons and why won't the media even ask?

I'm telling you, something about all of these shooting stinks to high heaven. The narrative from Joe Biden and the media is that we need to ban the AR-15 but that's bullshit. That's just the Democrat Party's agenda because they don't want any resistance when they impose dictatorship.

They will not answer pertinent questions. They will not tell the whole truth. That's the first clue. Something else is happening.

Call me a conspiracy theorist if you want but then read this: CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties

#13 This bugwit claims to be an eyewitness but didn't show up until it was all over. Claims to be a veteran but doesn't seem to know an AR-15 is not an automatic weapon.
"It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets... I'm a former police officer, a former Army officer. These M4s, AR-15s, they've got to get off the streets or this is going to keep happening" - Allen, TX mall shooting witness Steven Spainhouer tells

Your technique was spot on, Abu Uluque. You just attached your link to the wrong bit of text. All fixed now. :-)
