Police said the victims knew the suspect and the meeting was business-related, as federal agents joined the investigation.
On Monday, a gunman shot five people in Carrollton, killing two, at Ktowne Plaza in the 4000 block of State Highway 121, located 20 miles north of Dallas.
Carrollton Chief Roberto Arredondo stated the incident was not a random act, confirming the victims knew the attacker, who was later arrested.
Multiple agencies, including the Carrollton Police Department, Texas DPS, and FBI, responded to the scene where video showed officers with drawn weapons at the plaza.
Officers continue investigating the active scene near the 1500 block of West Hebron Parkway while authorities initially asked the public to avoid the area.
