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. “The victim can be heard in the dash camera yelling that he has been shot,” 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.
