FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — A neighbor says an Army psychiatrist suspected of opening fire on fellow soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas cleaned out his apartment in the days before the rampage.

Neighbor Patricia Villa says Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan came over to her apartment on Wednesday morning and told her he was going to be deployed on Friday.

She says he gave her some frozen broccoli, some spinach, T-shirts, shelves and a new Quran, the Muslim holy book. She says he returned on Thursday morning and gave her his air mattress, several briefcases and a desk lamp.

Villa says Hasan then offered her $60 to clean his apartment Friday morning after he supposedly was to leave.

Authorities say Hasan on Thursday went on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood that left 13 people dead.
