SHOCKING: POLICE SAY A 15-YEAR-OLD TEXAS BOY KILLED HIS EX-GIRLFRIENDS MOTHER AND 2 YOUNGER SIBLINGS FOLLOWING A BREAK-UP IN TRIPLE HOMICIDE

A quiet neighborhood in Odessa, Texas is reeling after police say a 15-year-old boy walked into his ex-girlfriend’s home and opened fire, killing her mother and two younger siblings in what investigators describe as a targeted act of violence.

Detectives say the teen had been struggling with the recent breakup and told friends he planned to confront his ex after school. Instead, he went to her home first. By the time officers arrived, the mother, her 13-year-old daughter, and her 9-year-old son had all been shot.

The ex-girlfriend was not home at the time.

He is now facing capital murder charges, one of the most serious charges available under Texas law.

BREAKING: LAWSUIT BY SLAIN OFFICER RIVERA’S FAMILY SAYS BREAKUP AND AFFAIR LED TO COP’S FATAL SHOOTING

The family of Officer Krystal Rivera has filed a wrongful death lawsuit alleging her partner, Officer Carlos Baker, shot her in the back during a June 5 chase in Chatham after struggling to accept that she ended their relationship.

The suit says Baker’s infidelity sparked the breakup and that Rivera had threatened to tell his live-in girlfriend about their relationship. It alleges Baker showed up at her home uninvited the day before the shooting, had a long record of disciplinary issues, and that Rivera had warned supervisors he was a threat to her safety.

According to the suit, Baker fled in the opposite direction after firing the fatal shot and did not render aid. Chicago police have called the shooting a tragic accident. Baker has since been stripped of his police powers in an unrelated case.
