KHOU, Houston, Texas 04/20/10, KTRK, Houston, Texas 04/21/10

Monday, April 26, 2010

Henry Hankston III was in what police believe was a PCP induced rage, when he assaulted and carjacked a man in Houston, Texas. After gaining control of the car, Hankston crashed into another driver, sped off, and then crashed into three more vehicles at the next intersection. Hankston then exited the vehicle and turned his attention to a nearby Metro bus, which he attempted to carjack. As Hankston scuffled with the bus driver, a Right-to-Carry permit holder idling behind the bus noticed the altercation. The permit holder retrieved his gun and pulled Hankston off the bus driver. When Hankston attacked the permit holder, the armed citizen shot Hankston, ending the rampage. Hankston was taken to a local hospital and is expected to survive to face a litany of charges. Police have made it clear that the Right-to-Carry permit holder will not be charged.
