A Texas sheriff’s deputy stopped to fill up his patrol car at a Harris County gas station Friday night when a man approached from behind and “literally shot him to death,” Harris County Sheriff Ron Hickman said.
Deputy Darren Goforth, 47, died after being shot several times. Local and federal officials have launched a manhunt in the Houston area for the suspect in what Hickman described as “an unprovoked, execution-style killing of a police officer.”
“We will hunt this person down and do our best to bring that person to justice,” Hickman said at a news conference.
Police released grainy surveillance photos and guessed the suspect to be between 20 and 25 years old. He fled the scene of the shooting in red or maroon Ford Ranger truck.
