Pirates Kill Man In Texas Lake

Pirates Kill Man In Texas Lake

ZAPATA - Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez, Jr. tells CHANNEL 5 NEWS armed pirates shot at a McAllen couple on Falcon Lake this afternoon. The husband and wife were jetskiing near Old Guerrero.

On their way back to shore, pirates in a boat pulled up next to them and started shooting at them. The husband was hit, possibly in the head. The woman tried to save him and ended up being at shot as well. She had to turn around and leave her husband in the water. She fears he's dead.

Pirates in Texas? I thought this was something primarily reserved to the Somali coast. Are we going to see a new trend coming out of Mexico? Pirates?

And honestly, what are "pirates" doing shooting at couples on jet skis?
