Taco shop customer shoots and kills would-be thief

welcome to the factor on census social,media split about a deadly shooting in a,Houston Taco Shop it happened last night,at Ranchito number four a masked man,walked in and you're looking at the,video right now pay close attention with,a fake gun and he pointed it at,customers while taking their money and,wallets one of those customers took,action you're looking at it right now we,stopped it there so you won't see the,actual shooting he can be seen on,surveillance video at the restaurant,pulling out his real gun he shot and,killed the would-be thief there are no,charges at this moment police say they,want the customer to come forward so,they can make a statement in this case,let's bring in our guest Georgia brego,under htx tactical a gun shop an,attorney and former judge Charles Adams,so Charles when you see that video,and of course we stopped it but,he shot the guy as he was robbing people,in the back and many people are saying,in the back that's Foul Play but your,thoughts on that legally I think they're,completely wrong I think that video,completely exonerates him under Texas,law you have the affirmative defense of,self-defense if you reasonably believe,your life is being threatened by a,criminal,exerting deadly force but you also have,the affirmative offense of Defense of,third parties when you reasonably,believe someone else is criminally,threatening the lives of others the only,way this would matter is if the shooter,knew that it was a fake gun or an,airsoft gun but if you look at that room,of people people cowering under tables,people and you look at his individual,Behavior it's not the behavior of,someone that knows it's a fake gun he,was tactically waiting for an,appropriate opportunity where that gun,was pointed another direction another,news station I'm not going to name him,claimed that the robber was leaving and,I think engendered a lot of this is,completely false if you if he were,leaving does it matter well I think you,he had to know he was leaving when that,shooting occurred he was still in the,dining room still threatening people,with a gun and it was absolutely and,completely lawful to the point that if,this man still hasn't contacted the,police and he has not contacted an,attorney I'll represent him for free,because I know he's completely innocent,he's a hero he's a good Samaritan thank,God for houstonians like him now Charles,if he doesn't come forward soon but they,have that video that's still of him,could he face any charges whatsoever,well you know when a police officer,shoots someone well other lawfully or,unlawfully the other police officers,investigating that shooting always give,that per that officer time to talk to an,attorney time to go away time to be by,himself before he has to give that,statement I I think this man was very,intelligent in exercising his use of,force and deciding to remove himself,from the situation and I think at some,point he should talk to law enforcement,but he should only do that after he,engages and talks to a lawyer he needs,to go find someone that he trusts to,represent his interests but if he,doesn't come forward ever on his own,will right what will he face I don't,think he should face anything he didn't,commit no but what will he face under,the law I don't think he will face,anything it was clearly he is absolutely,exonerated by that video absolutely,exonerated he did nothing wrong and he,did nothing wrong by leaving he removed,himself from a situation after trying to,save the lives of everyone in that room,he's a hero George let's bring you into,this conversation should anyone attempt,this well look I would have to say first,of all this is a perfect example of why,we advocate for concealed carry legal,concealed carry why we push for citizens,to carry firearms into practice this guy,obviously he knew what he was doing he's,practiced before he you know he could,even see the stance and oh yeah and he,waited for the right moment yeah to,shoot you know he didn't pull out his,weapon as soon as the robber walked in,and shot right then and there you know,he waited till it was his time and look,this is it let's do it you know and you,know it went very well so should,everybody do it you know I can't say,that could this ever gone bad it could,have gone very bad it could have you,know thank God that everything went well,and uh thank God that gun was fake of,course,um but again I say this all the time,practice practice what's your weapon,forget if you're going to carry a gun,practice take take a class go to go to,the range put some shots down range,every month or so practice practice know,your weapon know how to control it know,how to handle it so calls it this guy,never comes forward and we've seen the,video and somebody knows it right but if,he never comes forward what happens in,this case well I think eventually,they're going to present it to a grant I,think they'll identify them they have,not just a piss picture but they have,the vehicle that he was driving r

Bill would make catalytic converter theft a felony

morning political analyst Mark Jones,with rice University's Baker Institute,for Public Policy Mark always great to,see you let's Jump Right In Here,Republicans maintain their dominance,over Texas politics in the midterm,elections growing their majorities in,both the state house and the Senate and,hanging on to every Statewide elected,office just how conservative can voters,expect them to go this session both on,fiscal and social matters,well I think we can expect a,conservative session Republicans view,the election of past fall in 2022 as a,mandate they increased the number of,Senate seats by one and their number of,Texas House Seats by three uh and other,than you mentioned one all the Statewide,races even in the Titus race winning by,well slightly less than 10 percent so,there's going to be quite a bit of,pressure from the Republican base to,enact several policies that the,conservatives want to see that's going,to be blunted somewhat though by,moderates who don't want the party to go,too far which they you it sometimes does,when the base begins to have its way and,Mark we know Texas certainly made a lot,of national headlines since the,legislature last met in 2021 not,necessarily in a good way of course the,Uvalde school shooting uh the outlawing,of abortion critical race Theory and,lgbtq plus issues in school we expect,some of those as social issues in,particular to be front and center,starting today how can we expect to see,all that play out,all right as you mentioned uh after you,all day massacre there's a host of bills,designed to implement gun control,legislation ranging from very sort of uh,consensual Common Sense reforms to more,controversial reforms those include,Banning the sale of high capacity,magazines closing the Gun Show loophole,that allows people via Private Sales and,gun show to uh buy a firearm without a,background check raising the age to,purchase an assault rifle from 18 to 21,adding a waiting date period for assault,rifles none of that legislation though,is probably going to see the light of,day so I wouldn't expect any gun control,legislation to pass this session the,same is true in regard to abortion,they're a host of bills designed to make,the current uh relatively strict,abortion legislation that we have in,Texas we're flexible right now a woman,can obtain an abortion only if her wife,is at risk there are bills that would,add exceptions for rape incest fetal,abnormalities or through six weeks I,also don't expect any of those to see,the light of day to the extent to which,we see any legislation related to,abortion it's likely to be on the other,side focused on placing restrictions on,cities like the city of Houston or,counties like Harris County from,providing Financial or logistical,support to women seeking an abortion out,of state now you also mentioned the,lgbtq issues in school and school,related issues they're likely to see,more symbolic legislation such as bans,on some types of gender affirming,therapy or allowing parents to have a,greater say on what's taught in the,schools and placing limits on what,schools can teach in regard to sexuality,at different grade levels yeah certainly,a lot to talk about and discuss this,morning Mark stick with us because we're,going to be speaking back with you uh,throughout this next half hour we also,want to focus on some key public safety,issues that lawmakers are expected to,tackle today that's right KPSC 2's we're,going to Logan live in Austin looking at,one bill that would Target catalytic,converter thieves well we know this has,been a huge problem here in Houston at,least the last couple years,Lisa Andy good morning that's right,people are fed up with this happening,non-stop it or peers and we've covered,this numerous times I want to show you,on some numbers taking a look like this,is not just some theory that people are,having at issues there's hard data that,comes up with this this is not,information from Houston Police they,show you can see that jump between 2020,and 2021 nearly at 7 000 or 7 000,increases of reported catalytic,converter thefts and as through uh,November of this last year,8969. now I spoke with HPD about these,numbers and they said while that number,is high for the totality of what they,have for last year they say there was a,downward trend from August until leading,into December so they're hopeful that,this is an issue that is receding but,lawmakers are hoping to put some teeth,really into the laws on the books at,this point and it all comes stems from a,gruesome a death that had happened last,year in the Houston area there's a,renewed focus on this after the death of,Deputy Darren almondaris who was off,duty when he was killed trying to stop,three suspects from stealing his catalog,catalytic converter this happened back,in March and shortly thereafter,Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick who's,the president of the of the state senate,really put a task to the Justice,Criminal the criminal justice committee,that is to really

The Unexplained Paranormal Stories of HPD - The Honolulu Police Department Museum

There were times when I was in here when you could always feel,that you weren't alone.,There seemed to be someone watching over this.,There are spirits here.,My name is Eddie Croom, I am a retired HPD Officer and one of the pleasures I've had,over my career with HPD is to put together the Honolulu Police Department Law Enforcement,Museum.,One thing learned about the museum is as soon as we start to put everything together, to,bring things in here, that there was something a little eerie about the museum.,There were times when I was in here, when you could always feel that you weren't alone.,You get that shadow moving in the corner of your eye.,So I did a little bit of research as to determine if there was a basis for something paranormal,going on in the museum.,What I found was that the Honolulu Police Department, the building is built on the site,of Honolulu Rapid Transit bus barn.,In the 1800's, the trolly cars would come into the bus barn in the evening.,They would serviced, turned around on a big trolly that would turn them around and then,they would go out the next day.,What I discovered was, one day two workmen who were working in the mechanism, greasing,the mechanism, were not aware that one car was still out.,When that car came in, they turned it, the workmen were crushed.,And the Honolulu Police Department is built on that site.,Actually when the department was first opened, we had a few instances that occurred at the,photo lab, which is the exact site.,And eventually they moved throughout the building and of course, the museum.,Now you have to consider, this museum, everything here belonged to someone.,We have items from 1941.,We have items back to the 1800's, whether they be weapons, whether they be uniforms.,We have one of the original HPD belts that goes all the way back to the 1800's.,And these items belonged to people.,So, you could understand that there must be a "mana", a good feeling.,One thing that I have to say, we have never encountered anything that harmed or hurt.,More, just kind of being away.,Just kind of wanting to know what's going on.,Yes.,So there are many stories, there's many things that has happened in the museum.,There's some that might you might consider minor.,We have a display case in the back that is dedicated to the police officers who were,part of the Honolulu Police Department from 1941 to 1945.,We actually have a weapon that was donated to the museum by a member of the 442nd that,was taken from a Japanese officer.,We have a .45 caliber weapon that was used by a member of the 442nd and these individuals,have since past.,And one of the unique things about this exhibit is that it seems to have a "watcher", there,seems to be someone watching over this.,Many times during my tours, I've had people come up to me and say that when they're looking,at this particular display, that they could feel breathing on the back of their necks.,When they turn around, there was nothing there.,So these are the types of things that occur here in the museum.,On of the most unique and one that I myself has a very hard time trying to explain and,people that were involved in it cannot explain it.,And it begins with the mannequin that stands near the door.,It was a 3 day weekend.,My habit, because I felt the "mana" in the museum, is whenever I'm going to be gone,,say for the weekend, I would always come in before I turn off the lights, I would say,,"good night.", But this particular day, it was a 3 day weekend and left early.,I did not close the museum.,Well, the museum was closed and locked, as always.,When we came in, I unlocked the door myself that following Monday.,The mannequin in the corner was standing upside down on his head.,Now you might think that's nothing but what is unique about that is that this mannequin,,complete with his base, weighs a couple hundred pounds.,The mannequin was standing on top of it's head, no damage, the hat was still on top,of the mannequin, perfectly still, still standing of top of his head in the corner.,We looked at it, we tried to figure out what could have happened.,If someone could have come in.,But it couldn't have because there's only two sets of keys.,I have one and the other one was in the locker in the back.,So, no one else could have come in to do that.,So, that was one of the unique things that happened.,But over the years we've had many other small things.,We've had kids that come to tell us that certain things are moving.,That things are not the way they seem.,A mannequin one second, is staring and the next second, it may blink just once.,We've had kids come screaming to the front of the museum insisting that the mannequins,are blinking.,Now, I've never seen the mannequins blink, but I take them for their word., We had a group of kids from an elementary school come by for a tour,of the museum.,So while the kids are walking around the museum, looking at all the displays, they no
