In court on Monday, it was revealed that one of the suspects fired at Deputy Darren Almendarez before he could shoot back.
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas -- A procession from the medical examiner's office to the funeral home was held Monday morning for Harris County Sheriff's Office Deputy Darren Almendarez, who was shot and killed last week in a grocery store parking lot.
Clark waived his right to appear before a judge early Monday, but his case was still read in court, where a judge found probable cause and gave him no bond. It was revealed in court Monday that Clark was the driver of the suspects' car and he allegedly shot first at Almendarez. Clark is said to have warned the other two suspects to get back in their car as Almendarez approached his truck. The men had cordless cutting tools.
As the suspects drove away, Almendarez continued shooting at them as more shots may have been fired from the suspects' car, ABC13 learned in court.
