Doctor Charged in Drive-By Shooting
It strikes the Chief that there is more going on here than is being reported.
A doctor has been charged in the drive-by shooting of a bicyclist, who was hit in the chest and shoulder and is now recovering at the same hospital where the physician works. Dr. Wameeth Fadhli, a doctor at the University of Texas Medical Branch hospital in Galveston, was jailed Thursday on $60,000 bond after being accused of firing numerous shots at the 22-year-old man on Tuesday.
“At this point, this looks like it could have been just a random shooting, and that makes it a pretty scary crime,” Assistant District Attorney Xochitl Vandiver said.
Random victim, sure enough!
Random perp? Dr. Wameeth Fadhli? (Arabic? Iranian? Whatever.) Ohhhh-kay. As the phrase from Fox goes: “We report, you decide!”
Sounds more like “We report, we decide!”
It doesn’t say anywhere in the article that Dr. Fadhli is Muslim or that the victim wasn’t. And sadly, it doesn’t say what we’ve been hearing at the hospital, in Dr. Fadhli’s defense — the man who was shot allegedly attempted to rob Dr. Fadhli’s wife and son at gunpoint. Thus, the good doc was trying to protect his family. This was not Muslim v. non-Muslim. It was not an act of terrorism or jihad. It was simply American citizen v. American citizen (Fadhli was born in Indiana).

Still not a lot more than we already knew from the first article. But now they’re saying it’s not as random as originally thought.
