A specialty vehicle manufactured by Lenco for these kinds of scenarios...basically a SWAT armored truck with a curb-weight and impact-power to rival a (small) tank. (about 7T, mostly because it's covered in bomb-proofing steel-plate)

That would be kind of conspicuous anywhere, even Texas.

It will be interesting to find out what motivated these goons. They're not ISIL, they'd have fought to the death, not taken off. Maybe US grown wannabes.
