Houston: Marital and financial problems may be the cause of a Christmas Day massacre in Texas by a man of Iranian-origin dressed as Santa Claus, police have said as the seven dead were identified.
The seven bodies were discovered strewn in the living room area of the Grapevine apartment, amid opened presents and near a Christmas tree.
Suspected shooter Aziz Yazdanpanah, 56, had been estranged from his wife and two teenage children when they moved out of the family’s upscale home in nearby Colleyville earlier this year. Yazdanpanah showed up to his estranged wife’s apartment on Christmas morning dressed like St Nick and opened fire shortly after the family had unwrapped presents.(PTI)
