Despite being a racial and ethnic minority, the corporate press reported that, according to an unnamed source, law enforcement is investigating Garcia for “possible links to white supremacist ideology.” The New York Times gave more details, indicating the gunman had been linked to an openly racist account on the Russian social media site OK.RU that “matches the gunman’s birthday and refers to a motel where he was staying before the shooting.”
