Original Note:
There are *no* known MS-13 gang ties with the shooter, and he had no criminal history. He was a US veteran. Investigators are looking into white supremacist/nationalist content shared by the shooter, as well as a "Right Wing Death Squad" patch he wore during the shooting. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/07/us/texas-mall-shooting-allen.html https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/allen-texas-mass-shooter-motivated-by-white-supremacist-beliefs-feds-1234731085/
