A Taqueria Customer In Texas Shot A Robber & Walked Away Like It Was No Big Deal - NARCITY Houston

A taqueria customer in Texas shot and killed a robber who came inside the busy establishment wielding a weapon and demanding people's money.

Surveillance footage shows the unidentified person, who presumably shot the thief at Ranchito Taqueria in southwest Houston, TX, Thursday night, giving patrons their stolen money back and leaving as if nothing had happened. The shooter still hasn't been identified by the Houston Police Department.

The security video obtained by KHOU11 shows a person dressed head-to-toe in black barge into the spot where a few people are eating. The person walks around to each table, seemingly takes people’s money, and eventually turns his back on the previously mentioned customer, who can be seen pulling out a gun and shooting him.


The robbery suspect didn't have a real weapon anyway, authorities say.

"He had a plastic pistol, possibly an aero soft or possibly a little BB pistol," Houston Police Department (HPD) Lieutenant Ronnie Wilkens told KHOU news.

According to police, nobody else was injured during the incident. Authorities are asking witnesses to contact the HPD Homicide unit to provide a statement.

The person who seemingly shot the robbery suspect is not being charged at this time, but authorities would like to locate him for questioning.

Colion is pretty spot on in his assessment for Texas but in Minnesota it could be an entirely different set of outcomes.

From the video, you could make an argument that the perp was on his way out and no longer posed a threat. Of course, we couldn't hear what was said, or have enough resolution to judge the perp's mood, so it may well be that there's a solid argument that the shooting was justified.

What I do know, beyond a doubt, is that simply having lawyers argue will prove expensive.

We used to hang thieves. Now we reward them or their families.
