question to ponder this saturday, why is one of the country s most popular fast food chains facing a ban at one of the nation s biggest airports? we re going to tell you about the legal battle that mixes religion, political correctness, and chicken sandwiches. good saturday to you. thanks for spending it with us. nice to be with you. nice to be with you as well. i m leland advice earth. and i m elizabeth prann from washington. it was just a routine friday night for harris county deputy darren goforth, but it turned tragic in the flash of gunfire. the ten-year veteran officer stopped to fill up his patrol car after wrapping up near houston. what he could not know and did not see was the killer behind him who shot him execution style. harris county sheriff ron hickman says he can t recall another incident so cold-blooded and cowardly.
and we will continue to do that until the person is brought to justice. i echo the sheriff s request to please come forward if you have any information. it is time for the silent majority in this country to support law enforcement. there are a few bad apples in every profession. that does not mean that there should be open warfare declared on law enforcement. the vast majority of officers are there to do the right thing, are there because they care about their community and want to make it a safer place. what happened last night is an assault on the very fabric of society. it is not anything that we can tolerate. it is time to come forward and support law enforcement and condemn this atrocious act. so please come forward if you have any information. we need to bring this killer to
sheriff so needs it the crime stoppers and the 100 club have partnered together to double the reward that will bring about the needed information to solve this case. we re prepared to step forward when that information from the sheriff is brought to our attention to double the reward to $10,000 if needed. sheriff. thank you, rick. thank you, d.a. as you can see we re surrounded by the local law enforcement community, also supported by state and federal agencies as well. this is an issue that strikes at the heart of law enforcement in the criminal justice community. i doubt there are any resources that will be left unapplied, no stone unturned. i will tell you that we have recovered some evidence. we do have video from the scene. so this is an ongoing investigation. but one we absolutely want to do right. we are supported by the entire
community is in jeopardy. yeah, and rod, we did hear from harris county sheriff ron hickman, they do have indications there were a number of other witnesses. so we really heard a call to help. what s going on behind the scenes right now? what do these investigators need from the public right now? well, you know, elizabeth, that s an excellent question. i ve spoken with some sources down in that area. just to let the viewers know where this shooting took place at that gas station, that s a very busy intersection. and on a friday night like last night that area was packed with people. so they know that a lot of folks saw this actual shooting. what they don t know is who those folks are. so that s why, elizabeth, they re encouraging citizens from down there to come forward. they had the picture of the one guy. it s a little blurry, but even if you remotely think you might know who that person is, come forward, call the cops, you can remain anonymous so they can get this guy off the st
face the crime that s out there and those that s out to do harm. there s someone out there in that community who knows who s involved. and i would just ask, as you hear their leadership in their community asking, come forward. but to your question, police officers, deputy sheriffs, law enforcement officials across this country are going to continue to do what they do every day in order to keep communities safe. and i tell you, that is priceless. but this community also need to be able to stand with law enforcement, and we ve got to stand together regardless of what community we live in. we all heard sheriff ron hickman challenging the public there, saying if you saw anything, know anything, you need to step forward. absolutely. the sheriff said there were people in that vicinity who were in that gas station at the time of this crime taking place and he s imploring everyone to step forward and i m quoting him now, when he talked about, you know, officers feeling like it s difficul
