Using a driveway to turn around while not white in Texas... That's a killing

From the end of the article:

“Why did it take them 10-days to make the arrest," his brother, Othmane Dghoughi, told KXAN.

The sad truth is, they are lucky a white man in Texas got arrested at all for killing someone who is not white. I would not be one bit shocked if the guy gets off with a 'stand your ground' defense.

Turned around in a driveway and a man came out with a gun! I couldn't believe it.

not to pull in driveway in rural areas unless they were expecting you. Also, don’t get out of the car, even if the big dogs look friendly, until the owner came out.
