Federal prosecutors said Song purchased three AR-style rifles used in the incident.
Song is considered armed and dangerous
DPS said Song is 5 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs 150 pounds, and said he has ties to Dallas and Addison.
Also Thursday, the Texas Crime Stoppers offered a $10,000 reward for information that leads to Song's arrest. The money is on top of $25,000 being offered by the FBI.
It was not immediately clear whether Song has an attorney. Federal court records do not list attorneys for any of the suspects accused in the case.
