Texas Hwy 149
A state trooper tried to stop a vehicle for a traffic violation on Texas 149, but the driver fled in his vehicle. The driver then exited his still-running car in a Beckville residential neighborhood, where the car traveled a short distance and struck a tree. Roquemore then ran about 300 yards before he fell to the ground and then tried to get back up. The trooper told investigators he asked Roquemore to show his hands, and when Roquemore failed to comply, the trooper shot and killed him. No gun was found.
