Houston, Texas — The Houston police department released body-camera footage of officers shooting and killing a man on Wednesday, July 14, 2021 in southeast Houston after they say he appeared to reach for a firearm in his crashed car. The suspect was identified as 32-year-old David David Salinas. Two officers discharged their duty weapons. Officers N. Garcia and M. Salazar are assigned to the Gang Division. Officer Garcia was sworn in as an officer in August 2016 and Officer Salazar in April 2016.

Officers with the HPD Gang Division- Crime Reduction Unit were advised by members of the HPD Vice Division they needed a vehicle stopped in regards to an investigation they were conducting. When officers attempted to initiate a traffic stop on the vehicle, the suspect driver fled. The suspect’s vehicle struck a concrete pole while he attempted to make a U-turn under the Gulf Freeway (Interstate 45 South), causing his vehicle to become disabled.

Officers approached the vehicle and gave the suspect several verbal commands to show his hands, but the suspect refused to comply. The suspect was seen ducking into the floor board of the vehicle and returning quickly when two officers discharged weapons and struck the suspect. Paramedics transported the suspect to an area hospital where he was pronounced deceased.

  1. The American public at war with you clowns and we winning haha
    Wait till someone gets pissed off enough to do some real boom boom to you pigs hahah

  2. Is the suspects name truly “David David Salinas”? David David. Seriously. Way to go to the parents of David David for your total lack of creativity. I’ll bet he was teased mercilessly in school.

  3. I can't imagine how stressful it must be for the Officers when they see the suspect moving his hands around the car why they are yelling at him to put them up and they just want to end that situation but they are afraid to pull the trigger at first and it just drags on and on…

  4. I do not have any hands, as they both were amputated below the elbow. I hope I never get stopped by a cop. Typing this with my nose.

  5. Man every single criminal are dumb asf, if cop says "don't grab a gun" don't grab it or get filled with bullets your life won't last long buddy.

  6. Officers really needs to start using the CORRECT verbal commands that idiots can understand. They should have told him “Don’t show your hands” and “Reach out for the gun as fast as you can”.

  7. Beautifully done by the officer because when a officer is yelling at you 30 times let me see your hands and your trying to reach for something well your going to get what's called stop reaching bullet 🤔 🤣 😂
