Thanks. That makes it much clearer. Looks most like a gang initiation then. (Could be that they were following him looking for their chance, but more likely any cop would have done.)
Possibly.
During the last five years there were two similar murders. In both instances the victim was in his parked car. The killer stepped up and sprayed each with automatic gunfire. Never heard what motivated the attacks. I don’t think the killers have been caught.
Be it a gang initiation or done for some other reason, the brazen nature of this assassination will be taken as a quest for justice by every law enforcement agency in the state.
I don’t think even slithering across the border will protect the killer or killers.

Shots were fired — likely from a high-caliber semiautomatic weapon, according to Bexar County officials — out of the white car's front passenger window. Bullets struck the passenger-side windows of Vann's patrol car, killing him, officials said.
These are the men who provided the murderer with his weapon, officers:

About as much as this other fella from Bexar Countywas: Juan Seguin
Who is going to supply the American drug users and addicts with their daily high if not the Mexican drug cartels?
You have at least a 50-50 chance of being correct. It sucks thinking that a Fed with a badge was quite likely the man responsible for the death of Sgt. Vann.
Thanks for today’s pings SwinneySwitch.
Stayfrsoty showed extremely poor form posting as he did on a thread involving a fallen officer. That said, if you don't think that you can easily be a victim of police, you aren't paying attention to the news.
I’m starting to think they’re not even in Texas anymore. It it was actually an organized hit, they were likely out of the state within hours. Maybe California by now, maybe Mexico within hours. Hard to say.
