The two people Garza assaulted received minor injuries, deputies said.
Deputies are conducting interviews with those who were inside the home during at the time of the shooting to see if any charges are warranted.
It dont make sense how he assulted 2 people and all of a sudden he ended up with a knife and he got shot on his back it sounds suspicious
ReplyDeleteHe was good man and a good friend. Nobody deserves to die at the hands of another persons will. There are always two+ sides to a story of an event that is trying to explain some manic moment in ones life. It's unfortunate his story will never be told..the truth of matter never known. I miss you Eddie,will keep you in my heart and hope to see you again in my dreams.
