An Off-duty cop shoots an innocent woman on the way to the hospital, but he is not charged.


Lecresha Murray says she was feeling sick so she decided to drive herself to the hospital. She says an off-duty cop followed her in his personal vehicle and began tailgating her. Murray says the officer shot at her six times, despite her being unarmed. The officer has yet to be arrested, despite shooting Murray six times. The cop has not been charged with a crime.

"He just started shooting, all I could do was lean over and he hit me six times," Murray said. "I didn't do anything. He just opened fire for no reason, "she said. "I'm a victim that got shot by an off-duty police officer that did not identify himself," she added. "For no reason, I didn't approach him, didn't threaten him. I didn't do any of the things I did, "she told KWTX. "As soon as I did that, he pulled a gun, he pulled the gun," the officer continued to shoot at her.

When residents saw the man firing at Murray, they began yelling at him to stop. "We were not going to have that in this neighborhood because this neighborhood is quiet and cohesive," one resident said. Luckily, the bullets that hit Murray were not life-threatening and she was brought to a local hospital where she was treated and then released. There is no news of an arrest yet of the officer who opened fire on her and there is no comment from the police department on the incident. We have not heard anything back from the Copperas Cove police department about an arrest and are trying to contact them.
