| America's deadliest sniper was one of two people shot dead by a war veteran at a Texas gun range.
A friend says former Navy Seal and American Sniper author Chris Kyle and his friend Chad Littlefield, had taken their alleged killer to the range to try and help him as he suffered post-traumatic stress disorder.
Sergeant Lonny Haschel said in a news release that 25-year-old Eddie Ray Routh of Lancaster had been arraigned on two counts of capital murder. Routh was being held on a combined US$3 million (NZ$3.5m) bond.
Kyle was rated as the most deadly sniper in US history.
He had a confirmed 160 kills from a claimed 255 during the Iraq war and became so feared by insurgents they put a US$80,000 bounty on his head and nicknamed him al-Shaitan Ramad, or "the Devil of Ramadi", the Daily Mail reported.
