Terror in Texas – Unarmed security guard shot during an anti-Islam art contest

Garland, Texas – A former terror suspect has been named as one of the gunmen shot dead by police after two attackers blasted an unarmed security guard in the ankle during an anti-Islam art contest in Texas on Sunday night.

Two heavily-armed men, who are believed to have been carrying explosives, were killed by police after opening fire outside the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, near Dallas, at around 7pm during a controversial event where caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad were being displayed.

Followers of Islam deem that any physical depiction of the prophet – even a positive one – is blasphemous.

A senior FBI official has identified one of the men as Elton Simpson, who was previously the subject of a terror investigation, according to ABC News. More
