a drunk driver plowed through a crowd of South by Southwest goers are two of them
have been killed one man and one woman
now tortillas I'm not release the identity up the drunk driver or the
victims in this case
but 23 people have been injured and five of them are in critical condition so
there could be more fatalities in the future
there is a devastating story apparently cops in Austin notice the drunk driver
pulled into a gas station
I wanted them tried to pull him over and then he immediately started to speed
away
as he was speeding to the streets he crashed into the crowd of people
including a crowd that was coming out of a club nearby
then he crashed into a cab and then finally he crashed one final time before
getting out of his car and trying to run away
cox managed to take his hand and detain him and of course he will be facing
charges
including two counts of capital murder so you know we've
where and cover a lot of stories really cops are not doing the right thing
unfortunately
arm now and some were recently from Austin
but in this case you know it was a cop that notice how to control he was
he almost ran over cop who try to stop 'em because he was there
guard the pedestrians there were in that area right light locally
he missed them and in that cops okay eventually the cops Hazem as they most
certainly should have said actually use a Taser
right and and they detained him unfortunately
sometimes things like this happen and there's nothing that could be done
the stop him from running over those to people in killing them in running over
all the rest the people
and it's just amazing to me how a
stupid NB self-indulgent I don't even think that that's
accurately no week describe consider
certainly help cowardly is stupid I mean look we're about to show you some b-roll
it's a little graphic
I'm so I want to give you guys warning before we play the video but it shows
you what the scene look like
I mean you're so afraid about getting arrested because you were drunk driving
the you are literally gonna plow through a group of people killing some about
them
just to get away I'm so happy that he's facing capital murder charges and what
that means they could possibly get the death penalty because in Texas
if you kill people while you are committing a felony or a crime
you could get the death sentence I'm against that but this is
beyond irrational behavior this is criminal behavior he should face charges
and I feel terrible
for the people that lost their lives because this and more on driving through
the streets drunk
yet he's down for driving drunk but he's also done for the he's going to get away
from the cops yet you're gonna
swerved to all the citizens and get a and not hit any of them and then get
away from the cops here in
idiot braid and then second a ball that's what I meant by self-indulgent
how little you care about the lives of other human beings
that in order for you to not give me a little bit in trouble what you're
actually getting far more trouble of course
but in your stupid mind to think that you're not going to get in a little bit
over
trouble you will the risk their lives for I know it's really depressing and
the scariest part about all this is
you know I think a lot of people read this story and they thought damn that
could have been me either you or
out that music festival or you were considering it I was thinking about
buying last-minute ticket
I mean I could have been in that crowd of people it makes you realize that you
never know when something like this is gonna happen to you
now it's a very scary if thought that we discussed on the show before which is
you never know the day you're gonna wake up and now a lightening bolt out of the
blue
was gonna call your number right now its
so scary and and by the way I should also note the street was
four people just minutes prior in fact according to an official the street was
follow concert-goers
just minutes earlier but officials had clear the area because it is a fire lane
that's another reason I want to give the country you know sometimes a movie out
of some place a as a fire hazard or something you are not god damn it
they're so annoying
when this case is the greatest peace a lot those people had was the cops
decided that it's a fire lane we gotta move people out on the street
otherwise all law more people could have died so
great job by the authorities there in preventing more than us
