Eight people were killed in the attack.
Eight people were killed and seven others were injured when a gunman opened fire at an outdoor mall north of Dallas, Texas, on Saturday afternoon, officials said.
The alleged gunman died after a confrontation with police at the Allen Premium Outlets, police said.
The mass shooting suspect, Mauricio Garcia, joined the U.S. Army in June 2008 and was terminated three months later, according to an Army spokesperson.
"He was separated under the 2005 edition of Army Regulation 635-200, paragraph 5–17, Other designated physical or mental conditions," an Army official said.

Medical City Healthcare said its hospitals are still treating six patients from the mass shooting.
Three are in critical condition, two are in fair condition and one patient -- who is at Medical City Children’s Hospital -- is in good condition, officials said.
In the wake of a spate of mass shootings, including in Allen, Texas, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has called a special caucus meeting for Senate Democrats to discuss gun violence and the path forward on gun safety legislation, according to a Schumer spokesperson.
The meeting is set for Thursday, May 11 at 12:45 p.m. ET.

A memorial outside the Allen Premium Outlets continues to grow.
Dallas native Roberto Marquez has made it his life’s work to create memorials at the scene of tragedies. He told ABC News that this memorial in Allen is his 11th.
Marquez said Home Depot donated the lumber he used to build the crosses.
Volunteers from Lutheran Church Charities have also arrived at the scene with therapy dogs. The group has over 140 dogs in at least 25 states.
The same dogs in Allen on Monday were on the scene in Uvalde last year when 19 students and two teachers were killed in a mass shooting at Robb Elementary school.
A vigil for the Allen victims is set for Wednesday at 7 p.m., according to community leaders.
