A man suspected in a series of rush hour shootings near Dallas is a former Utah state trooper wanted on burglary and robbery warrants who apparently shot himself after a standoff with police, authorities said Tuesday

Brian Smith, 37, killed at least one of the victims of Monday's shootings, Dallas police Lt. Craig Miller said. Investigators tied Smith to a killing in Dallas because by matching the bullets found at the standoff, he said.

"We feel safe in saying (Smith) ... was the shooter," Miller said.

Wow, how weird. I also have to wonder if this was a copycat of a TV show plot. Weird that just last Wednesday CBS Criminal Minds plot was of a balding middle-age white guy(played by X-Files Mitch Pileggi-he played Skinner) becoming a highway rage shooter.
