Sutherland Springs Update 11.6

Texas authorities say the suspect in a mass shooting at a Texas church was embroiled in a domestic situation with his ex-mother-in-law.  Freeman Martin of the Texas Department of Public Safety said shooting suspect Devin Patrick Kelley had sent threatening texts to his mother in-law, who had attended the church in Sutherland Springs. Kelley's in-laws were members of the church, but nor present on Sunday.

During the chase from the church, Kelley apparently used a cell phone to call his father to tell him he'd been shot and didn't think he would survive.  Kelley was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound when police arrived but also suffered an injury during an exchange of gunfire with a neighbor of the church.

WEAPONS
Fred  Milanowski of the ATF said several guns were recovered, including a rifle and two handguns.  Martin said Kelley did not have a license to carry.  Two of the four guns carried by the suspect in the Texas church shooting were purchased in Colorado.  Investigators have not said where exactly 26-year-old Devin Patrick Kelley bought the weapons. Additional weapons were purchased by the suspect at a San Antonio Academy store.  

VIDEO
A video of what happened inside the tiny rural Texas church is in the hands of investigators.  They won't say what's on it.  They say it will be useful as the investigation of the 26 murders unfolds.  The First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs often recorded its services and posted the videos on social media. 

DEVIN PATRICK KELLEY
Kelley was discharged from the Air Force in 2014 after a court-martial in 2012 relating to assault of his spouse and child. These charges resulted in a bad conduct discharge for Kelley. Kelley's record also reveals misdeanor animal cruelty charges in Colorado.

Kelley worked as an overnight unarmed security guard over the summer at Schlitterbahn Water Park in New Braunfels, but was terminated after roughly 5 weeks.
