A 22-year-old man who was killed after opening fire outside a federal courthouse in Dallas had just graduated from community college in Corpus Christi.

Brian Isaack Clyde was fatally shot Monday as he exchanged gunfire with federal officers.

Del Mar College says that Clyde graduated in May with an associate degree of applied science in nondestructive testing technology. The college says he was recognized as an outstanding student at a ceremony in April.

An FBI official says Clyde was discharged from the Army in 2017. The Army says he served as an infantryman from August 2015 to February 2017 and achieved the rank of private first class.
