SUV driver plows into crowd outside a Texas migrant and homeless shelter - killing at least seven and injuring 11 others: Charged with reckless driving

At least seven people were killed and multiple left injured after a car struck a group of people outside a migrant shelter in Brownsville, Texas.

Police initially said they believed the driver of the Range Rover 'intentionally' plowed into pedestrians waiting at the bus stop outside the Ozanam Center at 8.20am on Sunday, but later clarified they are still investigating the incident.

The driver, who witnesses said was yelling insults at the group before accelerating towards the curb, is undergoing testing to see if he was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the tragic crash.

Police arrested him at the bloody scene in the border town and charged him with reckless driving but more charges may follow as FBI and Border Patrol agents are brought in investigate.

Footage from the aftermath showed multiple injured people lying on the ground in bloodied clothing while emergency services rushed to the scene.

The suspect is currently in hospital being treated for injuries, but he is under police watch.

Video circulating online shows the SUV running up the curb where a group of about 25 men were sitting at a bus stop, toppling them over one-by-one.

'What we see in the video is that this SUV just ran the red light and was about 100 feet away and just went through the people who were sitting in the bus stop,' shelter director Victor Maldonado told the Associated Press.

The SUV then apparently flipped over after running up the curb and continued moving for about 200 feet, striking others who were walking on the sidewalk about 30 feet away from where the group was sitting.

The driver then tried to flee the scene, Moldonado told the Washington Post, but was stopped by some witnesses.

From the video the car was flying. I don’t see how it would be possible for any witnesses to have heard anything. I think just like the Hispanic gang member with white nationalist leanings, the media as always is pushing what they hope to be true not what is.

Yeah, it was ‘intentional’.... until it appeared that they couldn’t blame it on a white supremacist nazi.

Supposedly, both this attacker and the Texas shooter were members of the same Mexican prison gang active in the Texas penal system- Tango Blast.

This appears to be Hispanic on Hispanic violence. Among established Hispanics in the Southwest there is a bitter resentment against Biden’s open border’s policy. they realize and are experiencing a real decline in their standard of living and security due to the influx. Combine that resentment with alcohol or a mixed drug cocktails especially methamphetamines it easy to see how this driver, possibly with a criminal background, impulsively decided to plow into these people.

The guy who ran down 20 illegal immigrants and killed 7 in Brownsville is recovering in the hospital.

He has multiple Rio Grande Valley Tango Blast gang tattoos. From bottom lower left RGV for Rio Grande Valley, above the R Valluco, above the V is the 956 area code. above either side of the RGV block letters are the two palm trees.

To the democrat all these “brown people” are exactly the same. They are just as tribal as they have been for generations. Put them together and they will recreate their s hole and s hole behavior.

Possibly rival coyotes taking out those who did business with the competition in order to get across the border. The message may be: “Use OUR coyotes to get across the border, or else”.

I have no sympathy for the 20 who were attacked by this dark skinned terrorist.
