Texas Shooter Was Discharged From US Army After Three Months Over ‘Physical Or Mental Conditions,’ Pentagon Says

The man suspected of killing eight and wounding seven at an outlet mall in a suburb of Dallas, Texas, sought to enter the U.S. Army years ago but was “terminated” after three months before exiting entry training, the Pentagon has confirmed.

A law enforcement official briefed on the investigation previously said Mauricio Garcia, 33, who was killed after being engaged by a police officer in the Saturday incident in Allen, Texas, served in the military for a brief period but was expelled for mental health reasons, CNN reported. Officials confirmed Monday that Garcia had been “terminated” from the Army.
