Police in Houston, Texas, have identified the shooter who opened fire at Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church on Sunday as Genesse Ivonne Moreno.
According to authorities, Moreno was originally from El Salvador, and had a lengthy criminal record.
The female also allegedly previously used the name Jeffrey Escalante Moreno.
A search warrant indicated that Moreno opened fire in a hallway and after pointed an AR-15 at officers who then fired upon her and killed her in self-defense.
Preliminary reporting also indicated that the message “Free Palestine” was written on the rifle, although investigators said later it was just “Palestine.”
