A gunman "came out of nowhere" and fired on constable's deputies who were trying to detain someone else outside a Houston bar early Saturday, ultimately killing one deputy and injuring two others, a constable said.
Deputy Kareem Atkins, 30, died from his gun shot injuries, according to a statement posted on Facebook by Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman, which identified the three deputies involved. Atkins is survived by his wife and 2-month-old baby.
The two deputies injured were identified as as Darrell Garrett, 28, and Juqaim Barthen, 26. Garrett was shot in the back, underwent surgery and was in the ICU Saturday afternoon, the statement said. Barthen was "immediately shot and immobilized," it added, without going into further detail.
Police say they're looking for the shooter.

I’m sure CNN is hoping the gunman is a conservative white Republican!
