Video from the victim’s dashboard camera and surveillance footage led Fort Worth police to arrest a suspect who they believe shot and killed a man for honking at him in a road rage case. According to an arrest warrant affidavit obtained by the Star-Telegram, police collected dashcam footage from victim Ricky Langs’ car and also reviewed video from license plate readers and surveillance cameras at nearby businesses. Investigators used the videos to create a timeline of events that led up to the Jan. 27 shooting. The timeline began about 6:30 p.m. Detectives determined that at the roundabout at East Rosedale Street and South Ayers Avenue, Langs stopped his car and honked at suspect Koby Burkhart’s white Chevy Equinox, which was in front of him. After that, the videos showed Burkhart’s Equinox following Langs’ gray Hyundai Elantra, police wrote in the warrant. Both vehicles stopped at the traffic light at 6000 E. Rosedale, with Langs’ car in the left lane and Burkhart’s SUV in the right lane. Investigators noted that Burkhart left more than an entire car length of space in front of him, in order to stop beside Langs. After the traffic light turned green, as Burkhart slowed down to stay next to Langs’ car, two gunshots can be heard on Langs’ dashcam video at about 6:35 p.m., police wrote in the affidavit. ā€œThe victim can be heard in the dash camera yelling that he has been shot,ā€ the warrant states. Langs lost control of his car and ended up in the median between Loop 820 and its service road, police said. The videos show that Burkhart drove away, according to the warrant.

Damn how can someone get this pissed off over someone blowing the horn at them?

Seems like a lot is going on in Texas.

Obviously you've never driven in Texas, particularly anywhere in the DFW metroplex. Shooter was white, victim black.


Hope the cat goes away for a very long fucking time. It won't be a death row type case, but he'll be a good candidate for life without.

I am curious, since this article and shooting are almost 3 months old, why post this now?

ā€œHe’s like, ā€˜Cousin, I’ll just call you when I get home.’ We hung up the phone, and that’s the last time I talked to him.ā€ Bobbie Wofford told WFAA that Langs was her oldest child. ā€œThat’s my baby, and I’m going to miss him being around, talking to me, calling me ā€˜Miss Bobbie,ā€™ā€ Wofford said.

This whole thing seems so senseless. Instead of calling his cousin, Del, "Del," he calls him "Cousin." And instead of calling his mom, "Mom," he calls her Miss Bobbie. It's a mixed up world.

Now they'll probably raise a half million dollars on a GoFundMe for the murderer so his family can cash in on the fact they raised a murderer.

This kind of thing shouldn't happen. Listen, if you have rage issues, don't carry a gun.

Another MEANINGLESS cherry pick thread.

Why not?
 
Meaningless because a whole boy committed the crime, doesn't fit the right wing, racist narrative.
.
The far left ignore black on white crime and it is racist to point out the high level of blacks in system.

If 50 % of them are in there because of racism...the number is still disportionate to the population.

Have you driven in Dallas lately? The road construction down there is enough to drive anyone batty...
 
White against black, black against white. It doesn't matter. If you shoot someone for just honking at you, they need to lock you up and throw away the key. He deliberately took a life when his life wasn't in danger. He should lose his freedom for life with no parole.

Uh. No.

He should be executed for pre-meditated murder.

The far right ignores white on black crime and white on white crime, it is a racist system that is the reason for the high level.
