On July 25 2020 Perry was working as an uber driver that night when he turned down a street where BLM protesting…as you can imagine they surrounded his vehicle. One of them (Garrett Foster) had AK-47 in which Perry claimed that Foster pointed at him…Perry fired his own weapon killing Foster.
On July 1, Travis County District Attorney José Garza announced that a grand jury has indicted Perry for murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and deadly conduct.
Justified shoot? IMO I believe it was if Foster indeed pointed his rifle at Perry. I also believe this is politically motivated for his indictment.
He tweeted out threats before the incident. He drove into a crowd. I don’t know if he was threatened before shooting or not but that is for the jury to decide.
This is exactly the wild west kind of stuff to expect when everyone is carrying guns.
Unless someone happens to be videoing, two legal gun owners got in a shoot out on the streets, and one guy is dead, the other heading to jail and no one will ever know who was right or wrong.
