Two law enforcement officials identified the suspect as 45-year-old Michael Marx, who holds a Texas driver’s license. He remained hospitalized Tuesday with multiple gunshot wounds, including to his back and leg, and his injuries are not considered life threatening, according to two law enforcement sources.

Marx is expected to be charged with several offenses as early as Tuesday, three sources said. Multiple officials told NBC News that investigators are seeking to review the suspect’s digital footprint, and phone and search warrants were expected to be executed at his home and elsewhere.
