First off, I would like to say RIP Big Floyd. It’s crazy how being a black man in America carries a death sentence. Just like most of you, it hurts my soul to watch how Floyd was killed and how our people are being treated across this country.
It makes me think about all the racism I have faced growing up in this country. In particular 2 years ago, an incident happen to me... I was driving up to Austin to met a friend so we could fly out to Memphis to see our friend graduate from law school...
As I was passing through Katy I noticed that I was low on gas. I saw a @bucees on my right and took the exit. As I was exiting two motorcycles came zooming past me. The second motorcycle had two people on it. The driver proceeded to punch my side mirror, shattering it!
The passenger, a woman, ran her boot on the side of my car as they passed scratching the left side of my vehicle. Next they pulled into a gas pump at @bucees where I followed to confront the people who had just damaged my vehicle. What happen next could’ve cost me my life...
The driver, a white male, walked towards me beating his chest saying, “You in the wrong state for that boy!” He then unzipped his jacket to show me he had a gun. Mind you, the @bucees in Katy is a busy place with a 120 gas pumps. In fear for my life, in a escalated situation...
I yelled out to bystanders “HE’S GOT A GUN!” The guy then puts the gun away. At this time I’m attempting to call 911 several times but the call wouldn’t go through(I later found out the phone lines to the Katy police station were down).
No one came to my rescue.
No one came to my rescue.
The guy walks towards me again, this time pointing his finger in my face. As I swiped his finger out of my face he pulls his gun back out pointing it less then a foot away from my face. I cried out:
“HELP”
“HE’S GOT A GUN”
“HE BROKE MY MIRROR”
“& NOW HE IS POINTING A GUN AT ME”
“HELP”
“HE’S GOT A GUN”
“HE BROKE MY MIRROR”
“& NOW HE IS POINTING A GUN AT ME”
After my plea, the guy puts the gun away only to pull it out one last time calling me a “NIGGER!” as I see bucees employees coming outside. The guy, the lady & his friend jumped on their motorcycles, fleeing the scene. I was able to capture this video. Excuse my language
Shortly after they left the police arrived. They quickly sent an officer to try and find them, which was to no avail. One cop stayed with me to get my side of the story. He then went into @bucees to review their security footage but wouldn’t let me review the video.
A few weeks later the detective that was assigned to my case asked me to come in to see if I could pick the guy out of a line up. When I get there I’m shown a photo line up of 6 Hispanic men. I told him that none of the men were him and that guy who I encountered was a white man
The detective replied “Whites & Hispanics sometimes look the same and one of these guys is definitely the guy that did this. You just have to point him out” I look at those pictures for 20 mins and none of them looked like the guy. So I picked a guy who looked most like him
The detective came back in the room telling me I picked the wrong guy. He then pointed at the guy who he thought it was(only to tell me a few months later that it wasn’t the guy who he thought it was). I haven’t heard from Katy PD in almost two years @cityofkaty
I would love if someone could help me identify these people. So that justice can be served by the Katy police department. I have a clear picture of the woman involved but the guy who pulled the gun on me kept his shades & helmet on the whole time. Please RT
I could’ve been killed at @bucees in the @cityofkaty and nothing has been done! I did everything they asked of me & it got me no where. Who knows how many times this guy has done this. If you play the video you can hear him say “good luck“ I just want justice, Legal justice.
