The caller provided a description of the male who was later identified as the decedent. Additionally, the caller provided the decedent’s Texas license plate number. The caller reported the decedent then struck her vehicle with his vehicle. After both the decedent’s vehicle and the caller’s vehicle came to a stop, the decedent exited his vehicle. The decedent approached the caller’s vehicle, began to punch her (the caller’s) driver side window, while screaming at the caller. The caller then reported the decedent had jumped onto the front of her vehicle and the caller drove away with the decedent on the hood of her (caller’s) vehicle. After some distance, the caller stopped her (caller’s) vehicle, the decedent was thrown from the caller’s vehicle, and the decedent sustained serious injuries. BCSO Deputies arrived on scene (9700 block of Spruce Ridge Drive), noticed the decedent was on the roadway bleeding from his head and had no pulse. BCSO Deputies rendered aid to the decedent, and the Custodial Death Report :: Page 6 of 7 --- PAGE BREAK --- decedent was then transported to Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC). Subsequently, a BCSO Investigator traveled to the hospital to determine the decedent’s prognosis and ensure the evidence collection process was completed. After doing so, the BCSO Investigator departed BAMC (prior to the decedent’s death). Thereafter, on 08/11/2026, at about 2335 hours, the decedent was pronounced deceased. This report was submitted in an abundance of caution and upon request. Custodial Death Report :: Page 7 of 7
