I live about 15 minutes from the scene and have a brother in law who is a Harris County Sheriffs deputy. When I first heard I was terrified that it
was him, as he has two kids however we've heard nothing, neither from him nor the department so we don't think it was him.
They do wear vests. Initial reports indicate he was shot first in the back of the head then shot multiple times once he fell.
Here are some of our local news sources.

This is being described as an "ambush" and "execution," as the officer was approached, and shot from behind. In the press conference, the reporting
officer did indicate that there was a video, I'm assuming from the gas station security cameras, but he said they couldn't make out a license plate,
or a good description of the suspect.
Some confusion on whether or not the officer was alone. When the first witness arrived on the scene, a lady was crying over his body, said she was his
"best friend" and that he had two kids. Media and police are trying to figure out how she was on scene, and whether she was connected to the
shooting.
Local police are looking for a "dark complected" male, 5'10" to 6'0" tall, driving a red or maroon ford ranger pickup truck.
