8 killed, 9 injured in crash outside migrant shelter in Texas
The man that rammed his 2007 Range Rover into a crowd of people waiting at a bus stop had been #taunting them moments before.
Videos of the incident show the car speeding through the red light, jumping the curb, and mowing down dozens of people.
"The death toll climbed by one Sunday after a victim succumbed to their injuries at the hospital, #Mayor Trey #Mendez said Sunday evening in a statement," the report cited.
The report cited Luis #Herrera, who was among those hit by the SUV. He observed 👉 "the driver was taunting people standing at the bus stop, driving past them and yelling insults."
He told the Post 👉 #the #driver was #yelling: “You’re invading my property!”
👉 Which is the same language that Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) used about immigrants crossing the border into Texas for at least four years.
Herrera suffered a broken arm and was released from the hospital on Sunday.
“He crossed the street and he hit the gas and he drove by my legs, and hurt my arm,” Herrera explained. “The others, he killed almost all of them.”
