A 35-year-old trucker who was among the seven people killed by a gunman in West Texas was returning home to his family when he was shot, relatives said.
Raul Garcia, a father of four from El Paso, Texas, was identified by authorities in Odessa, Texas.
“Just like my son said, ‘Mom, now he’ll be a truck driver in heaven,'” Garcia’s wife, Perla Garcia , told KVIA-TV.
Police say Seth Aaron Ator killed Garcia and six others and injured more than 20, on Saturday after he was fired by his employer, Journey Oilfield Services. Ator fired at random as he drove in the area of Odessa and Midland, cities more than 300 miles (480 kilometers) west of Dallas.
