Cause of Death : Vehicle

Event : Operation Lone Star fatal pursuit

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On July 24, 2024, a male individual from Honduras was killed during a pursuit as part of Operation Lone Star in La Pryor, Zavala County, Texas. The Zavala County Sheriff’s Office was involved in the incident, though the names of the officers have not been disclosed. The individual died from injuries sustained in a vehicle crash during the pursuit. Further details about the exact circumstances of the chase, the tactics used, or the specific cause of the crash are not available at this time.
.
Operation Lone Star is a law enforcement initiative in Texas aimed at addressing illegal immigration, primarily by targeting migrants attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border. The operation involves various agencies, including the Texas Department of Public Safety, local law enforcement, and the National Guard. However, the operation has faced criticism for its aggressive tactics, which have often resulted in fatal outcomes, especially during high-speed pursuits, confrontations, or border detentions. These fatalities disproportionately affect migrants, who are often pursued in dangerous conditions or involved in vehicle crashes as they attempt to flee from law enforcement.

City : Corpus Christi

County : Nueces

State : Texas

Agency : Corpus Christi Police Department

Officer(s) : Not Disclosed

Cause of Death : Gunshot

Event : Killed by police during domestic disturbance call

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

Corpus Christi PD were sent to the Four Winds Apartments for a domestic disturbance, encountered Preston Graham with a weapon and shot and killed him.

This was posted to social media by friends and family:
Family Seeks Justice for Beloved Son Killed in Police Shooting - Preston Graham, a 28-year-old loving father and loyal friend, was tragically killed in a police shooting at his Four Winds apartment complex on Monday night. His family is now seeking answers and justice, alleging inconsistencies by the police department.

According to his mother, Preston was a private person who avoided social media and was protective of his privacy. He had been living in Four Winds apartment complex for two months and was known to be a quiet and respectful neighbor.

However, Preston's ex-girlfriend had a history of harassment and had previously kicked down his door with a friend, prompting Preston to call the police, according to his mother Yvonne Brown. Despite this, no action was taken.

On the night of the shooting, Preston's ex-girlfriend allegedly texted him repeatedly, but he didn't respond as he was with his new girlfriend. Yvonne Brown says someone called the police, claiming he was breaking into his home and was "armed and dangerous". Another narrative Yvonne states she received was that a neighbor called police for a noise disturbance.

Preston's mother claims that the police department has been uncooperative about the events leading up to the shooting. She has been unable to obtain video footage from the scene and alleges that the police are trying to cover up any wrongdoing and even wiped Preston's video off his own security camera.

The family is calling for transparency and accountability, seeking answers about what really happened on that fateful July 22nd night. They want to ensure that Preston's legacy as a loving father and friend is not tarnished by false accusations.
