Law enforcement sources told The Post that investigators are looking into the possibility of someone who helped fix or enable the carnage.

“We are aggressively running down every lead, including those of his known associates,” they added, calling on the public to reach out if they have had any interactions with the 42-year-old Texas native, who officials say served in the military for 10 years.
