The Army reservist who killed five Dallas police officers had kept an unauthorized grenade in his room on an Afghanistan base in 2014, along with stolen women’s panties and prescription medicine, according to a report by Army officials.
The report, which comes from the Army investigation a sexual harassment complaint against Micah Johnson, was released Friday and includes new details about an incident that left Johnson stripped of his weapons and removed from his base in disgrace in May 2014.

Soldiers found the missing underwear in a dumpster where Johnson had apparently thrown them after getting caught with them in his room.
Later on, a few other soldiers were packing up Johnson’s possessions and found the MK-19 grenade in his room, as well as a .50-caliber round and prescription medicine belonging to someone else, the report said.
The 25-year-old Dallas man was killed July 8 after targeting police during a rally protesting recent police shootings.
Carrying an assault rifle, Johnson took multiple positions as he attacked police, killing Sr Cpl Lorne Ahrens, Officer Michael Krol, Officer Patrick Zamarripa,Sgt Michael Smith and Officer Brent Thompson.
He threatened to kill more before a bomb-carrying robot was deployed to kill him, authorities said.
Johnson told authorities during the attack that he wanted to gun down white officers, police have said.
