A video shows a man, Eric Eugene Washington, 30, walking around showing what appears to be a firearm. He goes around taking money. One of the customers was armed, waited for the opportunity to act, then quickly positioned himself. He fired into Washington. The robber fell to the floor. This did not stop additional rounds from being fired. This case was referred to a grand jury, which declined to forward charges for this event. Washington’s mother said that she didn’t condone her son’s behavior, she talked about her son’s promise to be the best man he could be and wondered why excessive shots were fired.<\/p>\n

The “no bill” decision means at least nine of 12 randomly selected residents who made up the panel determined probable cause did not exist, “effectively clearing the individual of criminal wrongdoing,” according to the district attorney. “This process ensures that members of the community, rather than the District Attorney’s Office, determine the appropriate outcome in all homicides in Harris County,” added the statement, which was posted to X by a writer for The Texan.<\/p>\n

The incident happened inside The Ranchito #4 at around 11:30 p.m. on January 5, 2023. Witnesses told officers that a masked black man wearing all black clothing, a black ski mask, and black gloves walked into the restaurant, waving what appeared to be a firearm at customers while demanding their money, according to Houston police.<\/p>\n
