A Harris County Sheriff’s Deputy was shot execution style at a gas station while reportedly in full uniform. The deputy was filling up his patrol car. Witnesses told Breitbart Texas the shooter shot the deputy in the back of the head and then three times in the back. This tragedy comes within days of a group of Black radicals calling for “lynching whites and killing cops,” as Breitbart Texas recently reported. Witnesses also told Breitbart Texas that the shooter was a black male.
The shooting occurred late Friday evening in Northwest Harris County just outside of Houston. One witness who spoke to this writer said he knew the deputy personally and had just spoken with him about five minutes before the shooting.
He said he saw the man shoot his friend and speed off in a red pickup truck. He said he followed the truck for about two miles until he lost it at a major highway intersection. The truck turned onto Highway 6 from West Road and disappeared.
Deputies in the area confirmed they were indeed searching for a red Ford Ranger pickup truck.
Two teenage girls told Breitbart Texas they saw the shooter fire one shot into the back of the head of the deputy who was simply getting gas for his vehicle. After the deputy fell, they heard three or four other shots. According to the first witness, those shots were fired into the deputy’s back.
The execution of the deputy came just days after black radicals went on an internet radio show and called for the lynching of white people and the killing of cops to “turn the tide” against blacks being killed by cops. Breitbart Texas reported on Friday morning the details of the radio show and the comments that were made.

Do what seems best for a given situation, I suppose.
Black Lives Matter, shooting white cops, continual protests and looting, marches and demonstrations, Louie and fellow black hacks promoting racism for dollars, and more, only serve to set blacks farther back.
Yes.
Mom says he was home with her.
“Why aren’t they releasing his identity?”
Possibly because they are trying to determine if anyone else was involved and not wanting to tip them off yet that they caught the shooter?
“Officers had described the suspect only as a dark-complexioned man”.
More political correctness? Looks to me, from the picture, to be very clear he was black. By using the description, “dark-complexioned”, one might assume they were looking for a dark skinned Hispanic or person of middle eastern origin. This is the sort of ambiguity that could delay apprehension of a criminal, and put more of the public at risk if they came into contact with the criminal and were not on guard because of the inaccurate description.
“The man’s mother — who didn’t want to show her face or give her name —
tells Eyewitness News her son is innocent. She said, “My son is
innocent. I was in the house with him, so when that happened, my son was
home.”
Yeah, and I’m sure he was about to start college in the fall like Michael Brown and was always a good boy
You mean #BlackLiesMatter
” Know the bad guy would then be looking at you “
And the business end of a .45 ACP.
;)
Things happen.
Yes, and we will be one huge step closer to totalitarianism which is what obama and his kind have been working for these last eight years.
“The mother of the man in custody after a Harris County deputy was shot and killed says her son is innocent”
Well ok then.
“One problem there could be, if the cop saw you pointing a weapon at someone, and did not realize you were doing so chiefly for his benefit, he may shoot you deliberately, by mistake.
Things happen.”
You buy your ticket and take your chances.
Thanks for the pep talk. I’m going to Baton Rouge in 10 days.
Law enforcement feels that no one has THEIR back. What to do oh what to do
Practice quick draw as maybe the best option and hope you don’t draw down on a po lice taunter. The consequences of hurting or killing a member of the protected class far outweigh any auguement for your own safety in today’s bizzaro world and you know it. My solution ...get out of law enforcement in mass
Martial law puts the government and policing into the hands of state and/or federal troops. "Martial" is derived from Mars, the god of War.
Just a small--but very significant--correction of the English.
The other thing we need nationwide, constitutional carry. The founders intended for all of us to own use and carry with us any firearm, anyway, and anywhere. Unmolested by government rules or fees.
“One problem there could be, if the cop saw you pointing a weapon at someone, and did not realize you were doing so chiefly for his benefit, he may shoot you deliberately, by mistake. Things happen.”
Very true.
