Man says he's the mystery hero from El Paso Walmart shooting: 'Very good possibility it's him'

El Paso Police Department detectives said that Ponce contacted them Tuesday after he was interviewed by the El Paso Times.

Before the gunfire began, Ponce's wife said she was smoking by a bench outside the store's garden center.

The man in the cellphone video shown carrying the baby from the Walmart remains unidentified, Carrillo said last week. He said they frequently visited the Walmart and initially told the El Paso Times that they lived in an apartment behind the store but said he didn't remember on which street. In a follow-up interview, he said that there was no apartment.“In reality, we were homeless when all that happened," Ponce said."We didn’t have a home to stay in. We stayed by Sam’s Club behind a clinic. We had a little camp there.

Ponce said he didn't know authorities wanted to talk with him, saying that he only found out Jan. 5 when Roberts saw a Nov. 26 El Paso Times online article about the mystery hero while on a Greyhound bus trip from Denver to Memphis.
