- The suspected gunman accused of killing 22 people in a shooting rampage at Walmart in El Paso, Texas over the weekend told police he was targeting “Mexicans,” the Washington Post reported on Friday.

The newspaper said it obtained an arrest warrant affidavit in which police also said the suspect, Patrick Crusius, 21, confessed to carrying out the shooting rampage. Crusius has been charged with capital murder. Police took Crusius into custody after they responded to reports of a shooting and saw a car stopped at an intersection near the El Paso store. A man got out of the car with his hands in the air and surrendered, the affidavit says, according to the Post.

Just hours later, a gunman wearing body armor and a mask opened fire in a crowded neighborhood in Dayton, Ohio, killing nine people, including his own sister.
