In January of 2021, Alex Gonzales Jr. was involved in an alleged road rage incident with an off-duty police officer inWhen backup arrived, two APD officers shot and killed Gonzales after they say he wasn't following commands.
This week, a Travis County grand jury declined to indict the involved officers, Luis Serrato and Gabriel Guttierrez. Scott Hendler, who represents the Gonzales family, said, "The fact that the grand jury did not choose to indict him tells me they were either not informed of what the law is properly or there was something else amiss because this is just an unconscionable shooting of an unarmed citizen in Austin.""Officer Serrato and Officer Gutierrez are going to be sued in the civil court.
"Every case going forward, every police officer we represent under this current D.A. administration, yes. We will be asking to be let into the grand jury room," Ervin said.
