A 39-year-old man inappropriately touched a woman and beat up her husband before the couple’s son shot and killed him in southeast Houston, police said early Friday.

Alfredo Rodriguez was choked up later when he realized his son was forced to kill a man to protect he and his wife, saying he would do anything to switch places with him.

“I can say, ‘Take me instead,'” he said.

The shooting happened at about 1:50 a.m. in a parking lot at 12810 Gulf Freeway, according to the Houston Police Department.

Witnesses told detectives the altercation began inside the Ostioneria Michoacan bar and restaurant.The attacker first touched Rodriguez’s wife inappropriately, so she slapped him, police said.

The couple then left the restaurant, but the suspect followed them out.

Witnesses said he began beating Rodriguez, knocking him out, then struck the wife.

DA’s office clears vehicle owner in Kroger gas station shooting – it’s ruled justified

By Daniel Connolly
Local prosecutors have cleared a vehicle owner who fired shots during what authorities have described as an attempted carjacking at a Kroger gas station this week. Police have said the man shot and wounded one of the people trying to steal the vehicle and killed a second, a 16-year-old.

An arrest affidavit filed in the case says the vehicle owner, Terry Thompson, told police that an assailant pointed a gun at him during the incident and that he opened fire in return. An attorney for Thompson described it as a matter of self-defense.

“It’s been reviewed and ruled justified,” Larry Buser, a spokesman for the prosecutor’s office, said in an email Thursday afternoon.

Sixteen-year-old Cameron Pryor was killed, police have said.

Willie Murry, 18, was shot in the foot, received medical treatment, and now faces charges of carjacking and other counts.
