I was actually just about to start a new thread on this.

This is very sad.

That sucks. I had liked his FB page just cause he posted some pretty good stuff but honestly I didn't really know who he was. Not much details on the crime, but I am curious to know what the motive was.

The wife just walked in and told me the news. He was a man among men. Will be sorely missed. Prayers to his family.

Suspect captured in Lancaster

Kyle was shot point-blank while helping another soldier who is recovering from post traumatic stress syndrome, officials said.
A warning was issued for the suspect, who was believed to be driving a black Ford F-350 truck with large tires and rims. The suspect was reportedly later captured in Lancaster, south of Dallas. The individual was believed to be highly trained with military experience, according to the Erath County Sheriff's Office.

Today Chris Kyle was shot and killed at a shooting range at the Rough Creek Lodge in Texas, murdered along with a second individual.

Chris had been volunteering his time to help Marine Corps veterans suffering from PTSD and mentoring them. Part of this process involved taking these veterans to the range where one of them snapped and killed Chris and his neighbor for reasons that remain unknown at this time. The perpetrator then stole Chris’ vehicle in an attempt to escape but we have received word that the police have since arrested him.
