Sheriff's deputies on Saturday arrested a 30-year-old man who will be charged with capital murder in connection with the shooting death of a deputy at a suburban Houston gas station, a killing the sheriff tied to anger against police.
Shannon Miles was picked up for questioning early on Saturday following the Friday night shooting, which was captured on surveillance video, Harris County Sheriff Ron Hickman told reporters. He noted that Miles is black and has a history of prior arrests for trespassing and resisting arrest.
Earlier on Saturday, Hickman had linked the shooting of deputy Darren Goforth, who was white, to anti-police rhetoric across the country in the wake of deaths of unarmed black men at the hands of white officers. On announcing the charges against Miles later in the day, Hickman said the department assumed Goforth was "a target because he wore a uniform."
"We have not been able to extract any details regarding a motive at this point," Hickman added. "As far as we know, deputy Goforth had no previous contact with the suspect, and it appears to be clearly unprovoked."
Hickman said a handgun had been recovered and that a ballistics test matched it to bullets recovered from the scene.

Definitely not in their right minds but when they ask for it and try to start it then the response should be rapid and overwhelming.
A handful of clowns like Dylan Roof and Vester Flanagan can not be permitted to set Americans against each other.
Your beef is with the agitators — not with your neighbors.
A little bit, but releasing Video and Ballistics IS NOT any more complicated than just saying YES,HERE IT IS! But since they REFUSE, makes me think there is a lot of covering up to be done.
