Police said Littlefield was Kyle's neighbor and "workout buddy."
Capt. Jason Upshaw with the Erath County Sheriff's Office said Routh had not made any comments that might indicate a motive. "I don't know that we'll ever know. He's the only one that knows that," Upshaw said.
Sheriff Tommy Bryant said Routh was unemployed and "may have been suffering from some type of mental illness from being in the military himself."
Israel suspected in Syria bombing
MUNICH - Israel's defense minister strongly signaled Sunday that his country was behind an airstrike in Syria last week, saying at a high-profile security conference that Israeli threats to take action are not empty. "We mean it," Ehud Barak said.Israel has not officially confirmed that its planes attacked a site near Damascus, targeting ground-to-air missiles apparently heading for Lebanon, but its intentions have been beyond dispute. During the 22 months of civil war in Syria, Israeli leaders have repeatedly expressed concern that high-end weapons could fall into the hands of enemy Hezbollah militants.
U.S. officials say the target was a convoy of sophisticated Russian SA-17 anti-aircraft missiles. Deployed in Lebanon, they could have limited Israel's ability to gather intelligence on its enemies.

New Newark priest was accused of sex-abuse
NEWARK, N.J. - A Roman Catholic priest accused of groping a teenage boy 12 years ago has been named to a prestigious post in the Archdiocese of Newark, drawing furious criticism from advocates for victims of clergy sex abuse.
The Rev. Michael Fugee, who is barred from unsupervised contact with children under a binding agreement with law-enforcement officials, has been appointed codirector of the Office of Continuing Education and Ongoing Formation of Priests, the archdiocese recently announced.
The new appointment, effective late last year, shows "breathtaking arrogance" and "an alarming disdain for common sense" by Archbishop John J. Myers, said Anne Barrett Doyle, co-director of the watchdog group BishopAccountability.org.
