Police were able to secure the area and Longview Fire Department medics removed him from the roof of the store. He was transported to Longview Regional Medical Center with life-threatening injuries.   The suspect has been identified as 35-year-old Nathan David Lanicek, of Longview. <\/p>\n<p>The investigation of the shooting has now been turned over to the Texas Rangers, and officials say they will conduct the investigation to completion.
