Authorities in Texas say a 17-year-old boy has been arrested on a capital murder warrant in the fatal shooting of an off-duty deputy sheriff on the northern outskirts of Houston.
The teenager was arrested Friday for the shooting death of Deputy Darren Almendarez, according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.
KTRK-TV reported that the 17-year-old did not reply to questions as he was taken into the Harris County jail. Almendarez was shopping for groceries with his wife on Thursday night for a cookout the next day for his sister’s birthday celebration, when he interrupted three people apparently trying to steal the catalytic converter from his vehicle, according to Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.Download NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
