Road Rage After Astros Game
On June 6, 2021, Paul Castro and his sons just left Minute Maid Park after watching an Astros game. While in traffic, a driver of another car got into a verbal altercation with the Castro’s over letting cars into the lane of traffic and finger gestures were exchanged. The suspect then aggressively followed the Castro’s onto the freeway. Mr. Castro attempted to elude the suspects then heard several gunshots and saw that the truck’s back window shatter. Unfortunately, David Castro (17) was shot in the back of the head and didn’t survive. Crime Stoppers of Houston conducted a press conference with David’s grief-stricken family to plead for the public’s assistance. A few days after the press conference an anonymous tipster called the tip line and provided very detailed information regarding the suspect and incident that was not released to the media. The Houston Police Department was able to obtain a search warrant after verification of the tipster’s information and the suspect was arrested.
