A young mother, a nursing student and six Mexican people have been named among the victims of a mass shooting in El Paso.
The attack, which took place on Saturday, left 20 people dead and injured 26 more in what has been called “an act of cowardice” by US President Donald Trump.
Patrick Crusius, 21, from the city of Allen, near Dallas, was arrested at the scene and has since been charged with capital murder.
Police are investigating the possibility the shooting was a hate crime, and whether an anti-immigrant post written online shortly before the attack was penned by the man who was arrested.
Among the victims are Jordan Anchondo who “gave her life for her baby”.
The mother-of-three’s sister said she had apparently died while trying to protect her two-month-old son form the hail of bullets.
Leta Jamrowski said: “From the baby’s injuries, they said that more than likely my sister was trying to shield him.
"So when she got shot she was holding him and she fell on him, so that’s why he broke some of his bones. So he pretty much lived because she gave her life.
Andre Achondo, Ms Achondo’s 23-year-old husband, was also named as one of the victims.
According to friends, Mr Achondo had recently turned his life around after struggles with drug dependence.
Koteiba "Koti" Azzam, a friend of Mr Anchondo, said he had fond memories of him.
Mr Azzam said: “I love the guy. He had the character and the charisma."
Mr Azzam said Mr Anchondo had started a business in El Paso, building things from granite and stone, and made it successful through hard work. He also was on the verge of completing a home for his family.
US army veteran Arturo Benavides, 60, was killed as he stood paying for his groceries.
Mother-of-eight Angelina Enlisbee, 86, was also near the checkout when she was killed.
Elsa Mendoza de la Mora was reportedly shot when she went into Walmart to pick up some items.
Leonardo Campos, Gloria Marquez and Javier Rodriguez, 15, were also believed to have died.
Among those injured were couple Jessica Coca Garcia and Memo Garcia, who were at the Walmart in El Paso to raise funds for a youth sports team one of their children played on.
Norma Coca told Wichita, Kansas-television station KWCH that her daughter and son-in-law were near the front doors of the Walmart when they were shot.
She said Ms Garcia was shot three times in the leg, while Mr Garcis was shot twice in the leg and once in the back.
She said her daughter was in stable condition and her son-in-law was in critical condition.
Ms Garcia's father Don Coca said they have family in the El Paso area who were able to be with the couple.
He said: "She was just crying ... I told her that our prayers are there and we're on our way."
The couple's five-year-old son and 11-year-old daughter were also at the Walmart and were not shot.
Mario de Alba, 45, had come to El Paso with his family from Mexico to go shopping.
Described by his sister Cristina de Alba as an "excellent father" and as a "decent, hardworking person," he was in serious condition Sunday after being shot in the back, the bullet exiting via his diaphragm.
His wife, Olivia Mariscal, and 10-year-old daughter Erika both appear to be recovering after also being wounded, de Alba said.
Other victims may have also been of Mexican descent, while one man who had traveled to El Paso from Mexico to buy school supplies for his daughter was among those severely wounded.
Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said: "For Mexico, this individual is a terrorist.”
He labelled the shooting as an “act of terrorism” against Mexicans and urged the US government to establish a “clear and convincing position against hate crimes.”
