Supposedly it's a hispanic male who ran over a bunch of illegals waiting for the bus.

That was some human bowling!

More of this, less illegal migrants. Maybe the CIA hired this dude to start thinning them out.

Police in Texas have identified 34-year-old George Alvarez as the driver who plowed into a group of people near a migrant shelter Sunday morning.

Eight people died and 10 others were injured in the crash in Brownsville, Texas, a city of roughly 187,000 people that sits on the U.S.-Mexico border. The incident occurred around 8:30 a.m. Sunday morning at a bus stop outside the Ozanam Center.

Police initially charged Alvarez with reckless driving, but Brownsville Police Chief Felix Sauceda said Monday morning that authorities have also charged him with eight counts of manslaughter and 10 counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

"Through the investigation, it was found that the SUV ran a red light, lost control, flipped on its side and struck a total of 18 individuals," he said.

Sauceda said authorities were not ruling out the possibility that the crash was intentional, and noted that police were waiting on toxicology results to determine if Alvarez was impaired.

Alvarez, a Brownsville local who Sauceda said has an "extensive rap sheet," apparently tried to flee after hitting the group but was held down by several bystanders. Alvarez has not been cooperating with investigators, the chief added.

All the victims were male and at least some of them were from Venezuela, Sauceda said.

Victor Maldonado, executive director of the Ozanam Center, said in an email Monday morning that those killed and injured were asylum-seekers.

"They came seeking refuge. They were staying at our shelter because they arrived in this country with very little," Maldonado said.

"It's unclear what led to this tragedy but we do know that the victims who were taken to the hospital will need help in the days to come dealing with the horrific event, as will the families of those killed," he added.

People can seek asylum in the U.S. if they fear they could be persecuted in their home country for social characteristics such as their race, religion or political opinion, according to Refugee Council USA.

Maldonado said the shelter had already received "a number of hate messages" and that its primary focus now is to provide counseling to witnesses and survivors, including children.

Cops displayed a placard next to Alvarez’s mugshot during a Monday press conference that listed his criminal history. It said Alvarez has past charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, assault against an elderly or disabled person, four counts of assault causing bodily injury to a family member, and at least 11 other charges.

Alvarez pleaded guilty to a charge of assault on a public servant in 2006 for allegedly hitting a detention officer at a jail in Brownsville, according to a trial summary shared by Georgetown Law. He was sentenced to eight years in prison, but had the charges dropped in 2010 after an appeals court—with newly released video in Alvarez’s defense—found him to be innocent.

A lawyer for Alvarez, Eddie Lucio, asked the Supreme Court to review the case, but was ultimately denied. The Associated Press, citing court docs, reported in 2018 that Alvarez was a 17-year-old special education student still in the ninth grade when he was arrested in 2005.

Reached by phone, Lucio’s law office didn’t immediately return an interview request from The Daily Beast, nor did people listed in public records as Alvarez’s relatives.

Records show that a 35-year-old Jesus Alvarez Jr, who’s residential address is the same as George, is serving a prison sentence for assaulting a family member and evading arrest with a vehicle. He will be eligible for parole next month.

So he's a violent, worthless piece of shit and has been for years. Good to know.

[dcaccount22]

maybe he'll actually be put in jail for a little bit now

[bodyfarmer]

It doesn't appear intentional, the bastard was driving way too fast, drunk, not a right wing conspiracy.

[Pyramid_Head]

Another worthless coward killing people instead of themselves.
