"AUSTIN, Texas - An angry crowd beat a man to death after a vehicle he was riding in struck and injured a young girl, police said Wednesday.

The driver had stopped to check on the little girl at the entrance to an apartment complex when a group of men attacked him, authorities said. The passenger, David Rivas Morales, 40, got out to try to help the driver, but the crowd turned on him, said police Commander Harold Piatt.

Morales was beaten to death by as many as 20 men and left lying in a parking lot, Piatt said. A preliminary autopsy listed blunt force trauma as the cause of death.

The little girl, 3 or 4 years old, was taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The driver, who got away from the crowd, is cooperating with investigators, police said."



This is just senseless...

Thats my state Git R' Done!

ok seriously thats f-ed up. If the girl had non life threatening injuries it was probably apparent at the scene she was going to live. Probably in a bad area with a bunch of drunk or doped up morons seeking street justice. And real manly of the driver to run away and leave the passenger for a deadly *** beating when the passenger was only trying to help him.

 

Vigillante justice strikes at a much quicker pace nowadays. I would say it's unbelieveable, but something like that happens daily it seems. What's wrong with people?

 

hmmm.....well i don't know what to say other than that is a bunch of men that act like monkeys, if the girl was intentionally hurt by him then it would be different, but killing him....the only way i would kill someone out of rage would be if that person killed a loved one of mine in front of me on purpose, not by accidentally hitting a little girl with a car when it was probably the little girl's fault

 

Unfortunately, this wasn't the only city with problems at these juneteenth celebrations.

You should see what we do to people who eat salsa that's made in New York City......

I wouldnt doubt if the little girl was the one that killed the guy then when the cops came she pretended to be hurt. I call cover-up !!!

Answers that question

 

So to celerbrate the freedom of slaves, people are getting all hostile? Hmm, makes a lot of sense. .

 

Yep, brilliant isn't it. Celebrate the freeing of slaves by doing things that may get them put behind bars for long time or life. Absolutely brilliant.

 

I'd almost bet the two guys in the car were white.

Someone prove me wrong.
