Thanks. That information had not been out earlier.

The question remains, though, of who shot who.

When the police justifiably use lethal force, that is one thing.

I will admit I am seriously distressed at the sudden presumption that they did so. From what I have read, they arrived ginned up for a shoot-out. Whether, if and how much of the force was justified, hopefully investigation will disclose.

I’d read this before Smokin Joe...thanks for posting it....I also had heard that “dues” are not uncommon between gang members...it’s a territorial thing.

Tensions between the Cossacks and the Bandidos have been simmering for months, according to reports from the FBI and Texas Department of Public Safety..... A May 1 DPS bulletin suggested that the tension could stem from the Cossacks refusing to pay dues to the Bandidos, who are considered the dominant motorcycle club in Texas.
