A Harris County Deputy Sheriff responding to a call regarding an armed robbery in Houston on Wednesday night was shot and killed. Shortly after 10:00 p.m., 28-year-old Deputy Fernando Esqueda was shot and killed after responding to the emergency call. The sheriff believes Esqueda was ambushed.
Esqueda was shot after locating and investigating a suspicious vehicle believed to be involved in the 911 call. Hours after the murder, Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzales named 44-Year-Old Ronnie Palmer as a person of interest in the armed incident and in the capital murder of Esqueda. Palmer was already wanted for aggravated assault from a prior incident.
We mourn the loss of @HCSOTexas Deputy Fernando Esqueda, who tragically passed away after being shot while protecting our community.
Deputy Esqueda was a five-year Harris County Sheriff’s Office veteran and served our community in the HCSO

Illegal - criminal Biden at fault.

Not an illegal ... one of 0bama’s sons.
” Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzales named 44-Year-Old Ronnie Palmer as a person of interest in the armed incident”
Call him what he is. He is a suspect. Person of interest has zero legal meaning. The Deputy was murdered. be a professional in your search to catch and execute the murderer.
Will get probation no doubt.
No, they’ll execute him.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has announced that state authorities are joining the manhunt for the person of interest in the ambush shooting of a Houston-area deputy overnight.
Authorities in and around Houston are on the hunt for Ronnie Palmer, 44, in connection with the line of duty death of Harris County Sheriff’s Deputy Fernando Esqueda.
The deputy was 28 years old and a five-year veteran of the force, Sheriff Ed Gonzalez wrote on X, adding that he was personally in the field as part of the manhunt.
Not in Texas.
Yep
Someone should be able to identify the neck tattoo. Likely a gang ID.
Pay close attention starting at 2:30.
Sounds like maybe a native local POS: Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzales named 44-Year-Old Ronnie Palmer as a person of interest
He will die of old age before they execute him.
Yeah, I love Ron White!
He would be a good VP choice.
I don’t think so....this is Texas, remember.
Harris Cty residents, for the most part, respect dear LEOs (excluding a demo of thugs) ....and, this is a Hispanic Sheriff, who was killed.
Will be interesting to see.
Prayers up, for this Sheriff’s loved ones.
