TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — The family of a 52-year-old former Arizona teacher says he was one of 13 people killed in a shooting rampage at Fort Hood in Texas.

Major L. Eduardo Caraveo's son, Eduardo, says his father arrived in the United States in his teens from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, knowing very little English. He earned his Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Arizona and worked with bilingual special-needs students at Tucson-area schools before entering private practice.

Caraveo's son tells the Arizona Daily Star in Tucson that his father had just arrived at Fort Hood Wednesday and was preparing to deploy to Afghanistan. Eduardo Caraveo spoke to the newspaper from his mother's Tucson home.

The father's Web site says he offered marriage seminars, with a company based in Woodbridge, Va.
