The sheriff’s office and the family offer conflicting accounts of what led to the fatal shooting of a Harris County, Texas, man.
A Harris County, Texas, man was killed by a county sheriff’s office sergeant last Friday and his family is calling the shooting “unjustified and unnecessary.”
Roderick Brooks, who had been free on personal recognizance bond for only a few hours in connection with a shoplifting charge, allegedly shoplifted from a Dollar General and assaulted a clerk at the store before he encountered Sgt. G. Hardin who tased him, then fatally shot him in the neck, according to today!
