Investigators examine ideology of Texas mall shooting suspect, source says

LA Times  

People make their way out of an outlet mall after a gunman opened fire Saturday in Allen, Texas. Federal agents have been reviewing social media accounts they believe Mauricio Garcia, 33, used and posts that expressed interest in white supremacist and neo-Nazi views, said the official, who could not discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity. Garcia also had a patch on his chest when he was killed by police that read “RWDS,” an acronym for the phrase “Right Wing Death Squad,” which is popular among right-wing extremists and white supremacy groups, the official said. Recalling phone conversations with police officers, he said: “There wasn’t an officer that I talked to yesterday that at some point in the call didn’t cry.” The attack unfolded at Allen Premium Outlets, a sprawling outdoor shopping center. Greg Abbott, a Republican who has signed laws easing firearms restrictions after previous mass shootings, called the mall attack an “unspeakable tragedy.” Video shared on social media showed people running through a parking lot amid the sound of gunshots.
