Deadliest sniper in US history shot dead

Chris Kyle, who was responsible for 160 killings during his career as US Navy Seal sniper, was shot and killed alongside another man at a gun range by a former marine.

A suspect, identified as Eddie Ray Routh, 25, was arrested later after being spotted driving Kyle’s truck.

Investigators said Routh is a former Marine, suffering from post-traumatic stress syndrome. The motive for the shooting was unclear.
