Two young boys steered a car into safety in Houston on Friday night after their father was shot and killed while driving.

The two brothers, eight years-old and six, told Houston police that their father was driving when they heard a loud noise and thought a rock hit the car at around 11 p.m., according to NBC Houston affiliate KPRC.

Upon seeing their father slump in the seat, the boys steered the SUV off the freeway and onto a service road, where they ran outside to seek help. Police said they found a woman exiting a Chili’s restaurant nearby the car who called 911.

Police said the boys’ father, who was 29, was pronounced dead at the scene from a single gunshot wound to the head. Neither of the two boys were injured.

There is currently no known motive or suspect for the killing.

Cartel likely mistook the guy for someone else.

This is what Bush League Republicans have done to Texas.

Bet Cornyn is so proud.

A horrifying loss for those two boys.

Reminds me of tv scene from the 70’s where an assassin decided to test his new rifle on a father driving along the highway with his family. Disturbing.

Well, if he’s out with two young kids at 11 PM in a Soros-Run City, what did he expect? People need to accept the new reality until we change it, if that is even possible now.

What would a Republican be able to do in Houston other than burn it down?

If you get an interpreter you will have a conservative neighbor. I watched Carl Hible (sp?) who was a former navy seal. He brought on his interpreter from Iraq and the guy was so conservative it was stunning. And, he loves Trump. If you get a family vouched for by our guys you will probably end up friends.

But this administration won’t let them in, they would just as soon let the Taliban get them, for that very reason, they don’t want patriots coming here.

I’ll be driving into the city late tonight after a weekend getaway with my baby niece in the car. I guess if I get shot dead it will be my fault according to you.

“I’ll be driving into the city late tonight after a weekend getaway with my baby niece in the car. I guess if I get shot dead it will be my fault according to you.”

Going into a Soros-controlled city late at night puts people at risk. Blame me if you wish, but I’m not the one who will be emptying a mag into you, instead it will one of the thousands of felons released by the Soros DAs and judges.

The top priority of the Bush League Republicans for 30 years has been open borders.

The car called 911 while exiting Chilis with a woman. It’s not rocket science. 🤡

Of course. Maybe mine was cut short by the ellipses.
