Police in Allen, Texas, have contradicted the eyewitness account of a man who claimed he administered aid to victims of the mall shooting before police arrived. Steven Spainhouer, a former US Army officer, said he arrived at the scene before first responders and performed CPR on people who had been shot. However, the police department said Spainhouer was not a credible witness and arrived after the shooting had taken place. The department also said he did not perform CPR or administer first aid and did not move a deceased mother who was covering a live child.
