Collin County grand jury clears officer who killed gunman in Texas mall mass shooting

DALLAS — The police officer who took down the gunman during last month’s mass shooting at Allen Premium Outlets was cleared Tuesday of any wrongdoing.

A Collin County grand jury declined to indict the Allen police officer. Allen police said in a news release Wednesday the decision “indicates that the use of force was justified under Texas law.”

The officer has repeatedly declined interview requests through his attorney and his name has not been released publicly. Zach Horn, the officer’s attorney, declined to comment.
