Seth Ator, 36, reportedly identified as Texas shooter
New York Post ^ | September 1, 2019 | 2:57pm | Updated | Aaron Feis

The assault rifle-toting madman who killed seven people and wounded more than 20 others in a roving Texas spree was identified Sunday as Seth Ator.

Ator, a 36-year-old resident of Odessa, Texas, was first named as the assailant by CBS News, citing law-enforcement sources.

When his gold Toyota pick-up truck was pulled over for a minor signaling infraction along a stretch of I-20 near Midland, Texas, on Saturday, Ator blasted approaching state troopers, seriously wounding one, authorities have said.

He then peeled off, firing indiscriminately with his AR-style rifle out of the truck as he floored it towards Odessa, authorities said.

Along the way, he killed a USPS worker and hijacked her mail truck, continuing the spree, officials said.

He made his last stand in the parking lot of an Odessa movie theater, where he was killed in a shootout with cops as horrified onlookers prayed for their lives.

Authorities are yet to identify a concrete motive behind the onslaught.

If it was part of a wider plot, like jihad, motive might be useful.
In a one-off incident where the perp is dead ... not so much.

Stop posting mylife info. It needs to be banned on this board. It is in fact that much garbage. The info is very, very wrong most of the time. Lets just say I know people... where I KNOW the criminal tags and other personal info are incorrect and could not be possibly be correct. Describing what these sites are and where they get their info from is a long subject you can do your own actual research on it.

The odds of the bio page on any individual being accurate on that type of site is extremely unlikely and using it to draw any conclusions is unacceptable.

Maybe relevant: The surname Ator is most prevalent in Nigeria, followed by the USA and the Philippines.

Several people referenced mylife in the thread, I probably could have hit reply without using your specific post, but since it included an image from Mylife it was the most instructive to show what thier site format looks like. It was not referenced specifically at you, nor do I want to use the abuse button on a specific person for it. It is just a lack of understanding on a lot of people’s part as to just how bad of an info source it is. It bacame poular to reference the site after the last couple of mass shootings... but it has unfortunately stuck since when instead it needed to just fade away as junk.

I am trying to inform, not attack you personally. My apologies.

Motive? What motive?
The guy is insane.

Empty of conscience.
Filled with evil.
In the grasp of demons.
Possessed by Satan.

None of which is politically correct to state and might even lead to "red flagging".

Agreed.

It annoys me when people expect to find rational motives for irrational behavior. IMO, that in itself is irrational.

These wackos know what they are doing they are doing the devils work to weaken America.. have patriots rifles taken away so the U.N. headed by China and Islamic countries along with Russia and South American chitholes can invade and get rid of all patriot Americans and Christians while keeping your wife and children as slaves. Then the leftist snowflakes will be thrown off buildings by Igor and Mohammed and they will be begging for Trump supporters to come save their stupid sorry commie pos faces.
