Humble convenience store clerk confronts shoplifters before being shot to death

HUMBLE, Texas – A Humble convenience store clerk was shot and killed after police said he went after suspected shoplifters who stole a bag of chips on Friday.

“No one ever anticipates just going to work that day and not coming home,” Humble Assistant Police Chief Dan Zientek said at the scene, near the turnaround lanes in the 7400 block of Will Clayton Parkway. The shooting happened around 11:30 a.m. Investigators remained on the scene until around 6 p.m.

The suspects, described as thin young men, remain on the run and are wanted for capital murder. Police said one was wearing a dark hoodie with the letter “B” on the chest and blue jean pants. The second man was wearing a lighter color parka-type jacket, possibly blue with a logo on the right upper back, and dark pants.

Surveillance cameras capture theft Surveillance videos from the Sunoco at 18228 Highway 59 southbound service road released by Humble Police show the men entering the store as the 42-year-old employee followed behind them. Inside the store, the men paced around and focused on the chip aisle.

The video then appears to show one of the men put a bag of chips in his pants before the suspects spend a bit more time in the store and leave after two minutes of being inside.

The worker, who has not been identified, is then seen on video following them out of the store before engaging in some sort of conversation. As the suspects walked away, police said the employee got in his car and followed them.

“They started shooting at him, in which he tried to reverse his car and ended up on the median over there,” Zientek said.

Detectives were seen focusing on the victim’s car, which KPRC 2 cameras captured with bullet holes in the windshield and back passenger window. Police said he was hit by one of the bullets and died while still seated in the driver’s seat of his car.

Police described it as “tragic” for many reasons.

“You’ve lost a great citizen who’s just trying to work and do their job, and instead we have two people that also have ruined their lives because they will be going to jail,” Zientek said.

The suspects fled the scene on foot. A Houston Police helicopter, K-9 teams from Harris County Pct. 4, and patrol officers searched the area for the suspects, however, they were unable to find them.

Anyone with any information is urged to call the Humble Police Department at 281-446-7127.

Segregation is coming back and the demographic that will be segregated is earning it.

Liberal’s response to de-segregation was to remove all controls over dangerous people to let them make the arguement that desegregation was a mistake. This is how liberals work. What they don’t like, they remove the restraints and let the chaos make the arguement for them.

((( Obviously negroes, since that part is always written in invisible ink in order to avoid controversy )))

The "thin" is a new buzz word. Is that an implication that they are immigrants born in Africa, instead of being fat from eating Michelle Obama's school lunch menu?

In the era when stores allow people to steal everything without consequence why would you risk your life for a small bag of chips? Even if he did get the chips back the owner probably would have fired him. In one sense it’s admirable, but in a much much larger sense it’s foolish.

The blacks have gone to the point of demanding segregation.

Whites excluded events and housing, etc.

Fine. Give it to them.

Their egos have been stroked into thinking that excluding whites makes them special.
Won’t they be surprised as to how it works and blacks will have basically signed the dotted line agreeing to it. Once in place, it isn’t leaving.

Everytime I see a guy with his pants hanging and his drawers showing, I tell them,” In prison that’s how you ask for a date”.

Except there’s no opposition. How many white people will still watch the Super Bowel with it’s black national anthem, how many white people will refuse to put their kids in schools that teach America is racist?
The only issue that alters elections these days is legalizing abortion.

He had his eyes opened years ago. He worked at a bank when non merit based decisions started being made.
My place of employment is doing all diverse hiring now.
I just work on cruise control now.

The problem is right in front of us, and we can’t even admit it.

**********

Who brought the problem to the USA back many years ago? Had to
have someone to plow/harvest the fields, clean-wash-cook. Have to
have someone to blame. They didn’t immigrate on their own.

Every black male should be sterilized and every black female bred with lonely asian men for the next 5 generations. That’ll solve this problem.

They are three young black “Utes” who have no intention of paying for anything. The pistol made the their own “Gods”, so they can do whatever the hell they want, because they have been told that the white man has oppressed them.

I don’t give a rats behind if anyone calls me racist. They’re entitled to their opinion and I’m confident that 99 percent don’t deserve oxygen at this point, along with their supporters who cry racism on everything.
