EL PASO, Texas—The man accused of killing 22 people and wounding two dozen more at a Walmart in Texas is expected to be reindicted on June 25 as he faces another murder charge in the mass shooting that targeted Mexicans, prosecutors said.

Patrick Crusius of Allen, Texas, is currently being held without bond on one count of capital murder of multiple people under Texas state law. The 21-year-old has also been charged with several federal hate crimes related to the shooting, according to a 90-count indictment unsealed in February.
