Man 'intentionally' Rams Car Into Migrants In Texas. 7 Dead, 6 Injured by HonNL: 8:03pm On May 07, 2023
The Land Rover SUV is believed to have 'intentionally' plowed into pedestrians outside the Ozanam Center at 8.20am on Saturday. Multiple victims were seen on the ground following the incident

[quote]Seven people were killed and up to six were injured Sunday after they were struck by a vehicle while waiting at a city bus stop outside of a migrant shelter in the border city of Brownsville, Texas, police said.

Brownsville police investigator Martin Sandoval said the crash happened about 8:30 a.m.

Shelter director Victor Maldonado of the Bishop Enrique San Pedro Ozanam Center said he reviewed the shelter’s surveillance video on Sunday morning after receiving a call about the crash.

The city bus stop is across the street from the shelter and is not marked. There was no bench, and people waiting there were sitting along the curb, Maldonado said. He said most of the victims were Venezuelan men.

“What we see in the video is that this SUV, a Range Rover, just ran the light that was about a 100 feet away and just went through the people who were sitting there in the bus stop,” Maldonado said.

He said the SUV flipped after running up on the curb and continued moving for about 200 feet (about 60 meters). Some people who were walking on the sidewalk about 30 feet away from the main group were also hit, Maldonado said.

The Ozanam shelter is the only overnight shelter in the city of Brownsville and manages the release of thousands of migrants from federal custody. Brownsville has long been an epicenter for migration across the U.S.-Mexico border, and it has become a key location for next week’s ending of the pandemic-era border restrictions known as Title 42.

Sandoval told KRGV-TV that authorities are investigating whether the crash was intentional or an accident. They are also testing the driver, who was held at the scene by witnesses, for intoxication.

Maldonado said the center had not received any threats before the crash, but they did afterwards.

“I’ve had a couple of people come by the gate and tell the security guard that the reason this happened was because of us,” Maldonado said.

The shelter can hold 250, but many who arrive leave the same day. In the last several weeks, an uptick in border crossings prompted the city to declare an emergency as local, state and federal resources coordinated the enforcement and humanitarian response.

“In the last two months, we’ve been getting 250 to 380 a day,” Maldonado said.

While the shelter offers migrants transportation during the week, they are also free to use the city’s public transportation.

“Some of them were on the way to the bus station, because they were on their way to their destination,” the director said.

Funny enough American citizens can't do petty jobs the migrants do

Racism makes them act without thinking

Migrants work in the construction site, the farms, they are Janitors and cleaners

USA is breeding animals daily. That is why you see them pushing and sponsoring all forms of evil, things that don't conformed to society philosophy or cultural ways. You see the government is indirectly instigating some of this behaviors deliberately. Americans today are been programmed into zombies. The nation is been set up in a way of chaos. You see some of this movies you watch, you see people or citizens suddenly start behaving in a strange way, this is what is happening today. In some States they defund the police and thereby taking away security people or men from the street so that this behaviours could go unchecked and it's already happening. A situation whereby for several hours citizens were looting and no police came to stop such madness. The mayor of the city defended them for what they did. These guys destroyed several properties o and you see this madness is spreading gradually. Make your research about what is happening in USA you will be astonished.

Ever since Moscow was attacked by drone.
They vowed to revenge USA anyhow sees fit
Since then I noticed shooting and killings started increasing in USA.
I have a theory

KGB might have sleeper agants that are citizens of USA. They live normal life until they are activated to commit crime.
Russia might have activated it's sleeper agents living in USA.

They can activate one of the agent to shoot crowd
They can activate another agent to drive his car into crowd
That's another indirect way of war
You are hurting your enemy using it's own citizens to cause damage to their fellow citizens. What do I know

This is just my theory,
Don't take me serious ooo
Na too much science fiction movies cause am

They have chosen Texas this time around. They have decided to bring this city to its knees. From multiple mass shootings to this one now.

Within 1 month, a lot of scores have been reported.
