A retired U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent was among two people killed in a shooting late Saturday night at the Kickapoo Lucky Eagle Casino in Eagle Pass. Six others were injured and a suspect is in custody in Wilson County, authorities said.
The Kickapoo Tribe in Kansas confirmed the number of dead and injured hours after police announced they had a suspected gunman in custody. Authorities did not release any details about how the deadly incident unfolded.
“According to reports, two lives were lost — one male and one female — in a senseless act of violence. Our hearts go out to their families and loved ones during this unimaginable time,” Kickapoo officials said in a statement posted on Facebook Sunday afternoon.
