14-year-old guns down three other teens in Garland, Texas – FATHER WAS GETAWAY DRIVER!

NYP

A 14-year-old boy fired off more than 20 shots at a Texas convenience store, killing three other teenagers and injuring a fourth in a targeted attack, police said Wednesday.

Abel Elias Acosta remains on the loose after the shooting on Sunday and is considered armed and dangerous, the Garland Police Department said in a statement.

A reward of up to $5,000 is being offered for information leading to Abel’s arrest.

“Detectives believe Abel Acosta is actively evading capture and need the public’s assistance in locating him,” the department said on Facebook.

The alleged gunman, described as just over 5 feet tall and 125 pounds, made his getaway after the killings in a Dodge Ram driven by his father, Richard Acosta, who police said previously turned himself in. Richard Acosta, 33, faces capital murder charges and is being held on a $1 million bond, cops said.

  1. Yeah I saw that, one of the purposes of the mask is not to stop a virus but to stop you from being IDed.
    It’s nice when family do things together. They both should be hung with piano wire.

  2. My local LE in my NorCal county tell me Mex Cartels are exploding in every state. But as one might expect especially the border states. This looks like a Cartel hit. Thanks Brandon.

    > Born in or naturalized???? Or illegal? That’s the question that needs to be answered.

  4. No form of ethnic identity was mentioned in the story other then the names, so I’m guessing that the father-son duo are illegal alien Hispanics.
    Thanks, media, for the fine journalism.

  5. I’m hoping when caught the 14 year old is tried as an adult and gets punished under the full extent of Texas Law. What he did is Capital premeditated murder and if he is, will die of lethal injection.
