*** beware any suddenly unemployed middle aged white male.***
It is the OIL FIELDS. You can lose a job and find another real easy there. My dad jumped from job to job and never went without work in the oil fields.
I read that he was fond of threatening other people (all of the ones I have read about were women, btw) who lived near him by showing up at their doors and pointing his rifle at them for some supposed offense. One of them called the sheriffs but Ator lived in an area with no streets or numbers, in a shack or maybe a trailer that had no utilities, and they couldn’t locate him to arrest him.
Frankly, it’s a wonder he even had a job. If he was a long haul truck driver, it might be worth investigating unsolved murders along his route.
It was a mini van. Not a postal van.
Also, the 20 mile distance between midland and Odessa is town center to town center. From 42nd street and 388 to the Cynergy is about 1 mile. The towns grow together there.

The only gun battle crossfire was at Cynergy.
Exactly. Why. no outrage at blacks killing blacks in far greater numbers than any mass killings involving whites? Democrats are racists.
Read my post 15.
I was not sure where the “chase” began, but the news reported it as a long drawn out event. 1 mile would have been over pretty quick!
Sad event for all involved, including the troopers.
Was he heading to the trucking outfit?

Another nihilistic dead-ender. Our society is breeding them by the bushel now.
So preventing the firing of the mentally ill will be the new rat platform
It’s been said that he was fired from Schlumberger (sp) and had gotten into a verbal with his exboss. The boss called the cops to warn them...it’s been said (Sat afternoon...before the Feebs applied all their fiction filters)
Yes, but you see the government may not see it that way in terms of red flag laws.
That fits the extended time to release the name. They had to make sure their ducks were in a row. If nobody had called to report him, they’d have released the name within a few hours of his death.

So the Dems will say take all the guns from the law abiding citizens at home with their families while this happened. Solve the problem? Don't think so.
There is a law against murder. And against most of the creeps buying or possessing or firing a weapon (ex cons, parolees, warrant for arrest, drug user, stolen weapon and so on). Plus plenty of Gun Free Zone signs around (church,synagogue,temple,hospital,school,college,day care place,city hall etc.). All adds up to nothing, so Dems demand more futile laws to be ignored by more nutjobs.
From I-20 where the trooper was shot to the corner of 388/42nd street you have to drive north through Odessa. That’s a fair bit in a four to six lane road depending on where you are.
I don’t think the chase Reinhard until 42nd street. That’s 8!lanes, heavy traffic and pedestrian area, sams, super target, lots of resatoand gas stations. He was caught down the road.

What a Ride!
Someone should verify and report whether or not there were any psychoactive drugs like benzodiazepine anti-anxieties or Adderall stimulant or something like that in play for this event. Mass shootings always seem to have this feature, although big pharma-friendly media and politically-sensitive district attorneys, and cops usually downplay, hide, or eliminate the profit-killing information.
Note to all: No law ever PREVENTED a crime. The laws are to PUNISH not prevent.
“Illegal” drugs? If only we had a law that illegal drug users had to turn in their guns, this tragedy would not have happened! /s
The left’s ABSURD logic for gun laws would be that an illegal drug user wouldn’t dare break “gun laws”.
