Two suspects have been arrested and charged following a shooting and aggravated robbery reported Tuesday morning in Liberty County, according to the Liberty County Sheriff’s Office.
At approximately 9:46 a.m. on April 22, 2025, deputies responded to reports of multiple gunshots in the area of CR 3416 and CR 3418. While en route, dispatch advised deputies that a male victim had been shot multiple times at a residence in the 600 block of CR 3416.
Upon arrival, deputies were provided with suspect information indicating that two unknown males, wearing all black clothing and face masks, fled the scene in a gray Nissan Altima traveling down CR 3418. EMS personnel transported the victim to a nearby hospital; his condition was unknown at the time of transport.
Sheriff’s Captain David Meyers said the victim is in serious but stable condition.
The Criminal Investigation Division (CID) responded to the scene and to the hospital to assist with the investigation and determine the victim’s status. A BOLO (Be On the Lookout) alert was issued to surrounding agencies, and deputies saturated the area in search of the suspect vehicle.

Approximately two hours later, investigators on scene observed a gray Nissan Altima matching the suspect vehicle’s description drive past the location. A patrol deputy conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle, which was occupied by two Hispanic females and two Hispanic males.
Investigators confirmed that the vehicle matched the one seen leaving the scene of the shooting. The two male occupants were detained and the vehicle was transported to the Sheriff’s Office for processing. Both male suspects were taken to the Sheriff’s Office for questioning.
The Texas Rangers also responded and conducted interviews with the two male suspects. Following the interviews, both individuals were charged with first-degree felony aggravated robbery.
The suspects are identified as Angel Salgado, 19, and Tomas Huerta-Sanchez, both 19, of Cleveland.
The investigation remains ongoing. Further details will be released as they become available.



They were just doing the work that lazy Americans won’t do. That’s what we’ve been told for years as they pour across the border.
“We the People” are tired of this. Liberty county needs to step up their game, Judges need to hold thugs accountable and quit the revolving door of releases.
More crime from Colony Ridge- yet the development is allowed to continue despite it’s known degradation of the safety of the general public in not just the shithole development proper, but a surrounding 20 mile plus radius.
I’d be willing to bet money that these two “hard working, productive members of society” were the sprogs of wetbacks- a couple anchor baby burdens on civilized society.
Hopefully the next Cat 4 hurricane we get will flush that toilet.
Oh look, more racist garbage from Sammy. What a despicable excuse for a human being.
This has gotten way out of hand and by no means is it just in liberty county.
my ol man was shot infront of me last year ten feet from me after a shootout that we went into the house to see if anyone needed help, or if everyone in the home was ok.
(WE WAS BOTH UNARMED)
the shooter came back in the back door that he fled out of prior when he heard us calling out for anyone that may have needed help. He reintered the home my ol man right then put his hands above his head showing the man he was not armed and was no threat and the man shot him point blank in the chest which cost him his life.
(he was only 49 years old)
the man also “shot another man” in his early thirtys 5 times in the chest and stomach.
As well as another man in his grown! (while wearing a bullet proof vest that protected him).
The gun shot victim with the five bullet holes by the grace of God lived, and so did the other person!
only one that died was my partner the one unarmed and trying to help!
after hiding in a port a potty and being taken back to the scene scared to death cause the shooter through his gun down and ran out the front door.
I was not sure where he was or if he was gonna come back and shoot me to. I got taken back to the scene in the pouring rain freezing to death and stuck in a cop car for 14 hours while polk county’s finiest set around laughing and telling family stories, and their upcoming plans! “not once was I able to see my ol man”
they wouldn’t allow me to.
after 14 hours no sleep and being compleatly scared out of my mind I was taken into questioning and Made to walk police officers through step for step in the house the very next day where a pool of my ol man’s blood still stood on the floor where I had to leave him and get another older man myself and my dog to somewhere safe.
right after helping the man who was shot five times he couldn’t breath he was dying I got him up by the house I honestly thought he didn’t make it tell 15 days later when I got a phone call from him telling Me thank you and asking if I was ok. (I had met the man 1 time before that)
the shooter and agresser spent 6 months in polk county jail with over a million dollar bond for murder, tampering and going against a protective order.
then all of a sudden his bond was dropped to a hundred thousand dollars and he was put back on the streets on bond after me being told two days prior when I called he wasnt getting out. also being advised that basically I should go into protected custody by law inforcment, family, and freinds!
so I filled out the paperwork just days after Jan 02,2024 where I was informed (I was on a WAITING list yes a waiting list to protect my life from this person who’s obviously not worried one bit about taking a life or multiple)
I couldn’t believe it 100 thousand dollars for a cold blooded killer..
that’s the same price men who get caught with a “small amount of meth” is getting in all honesty men getting dope cases or theft cases are having the book thrown at them way harder then even a person who kills someone.
all that says is hey if your gonna break the law stick to murder you can get off that within 5 to 10 years!
(catch a dope case and your getting a life sentence) in what world does that make any sense at all?
stop overpacking our jails, and prisons with all these small time charges and letting murders walk free..
if this Is what we consider protecting and serving then I would hate to see what anything else looks like.
the only sin that isn’t forgivable is to take your life or, the life of another number one rule in the most important hand and life book we have yet these people are let out and given all the opertunity in the world to take another life or even multiple for that matter they killed people or attended to what makes yall think some fancy leg monitor or court ordered house arrest is gonna stop them if they decide to finish what they started or just hurt other innocent people in the way?
seriously I’m a high-school drop out and it don’t take rocket science to know our judicial system is compleatly flawed and ran in a way that even our children would be more likely to make better laws and how to handle these people and situations.
It’s been over a year now I get told nothing, no updates on the court process, or what’s happening!
I got no goodbye with my ol man, no funeral, no closer,
I heard every excuse in the book and I will have to live with that night everyday for the rest of my life and not knowing what was done with my ol man!
Only what people felt like telling me! when I call for updates all I’m told is oh just gearing up for trial that’s all, and everyone deserves the right to a bond…
really?
Sorry I beg the differ and I’m sure so would the person who put that law into effect if it was them standing in mine and so many others shoes watching someone kill their loved ones in front of them.
I put my life on that if it was them the whole law enforcement wouldn’t stop tell the killer was dead, or behind bars for the rest of their lives being made someones punk.
and we vote for these people something has got to change and we the people are the only ones who can make that happen but it takes us speaking out about the things we are not ok with. That’s not right or any kind of justice for ones who deserve to get it yesterday was James birthday or would have been he will never see his grandchildren grow up never mend any broken relationships he had he will never walk through the door again and look at me and smile it’s all over at the hands of a man who decided it was ok to take lives of innocent people and now gets to walk the streets and make facebooks with huge smiling faces like he didn’t kill someone in cold blood James doesn’t ever get to do anything again and I will look over my shoulder for the rest of my life since that night I won’t walk outside at night alone I sleep with the lights on all the time and I always loved the dark lights kept Me awake I’m afraid to walk into a dark room where I can’t see everything to hear a gun shot close by sends me into a ball of fear shaking and crying thankfully it’s gotten a little more manageable I’ve had to move 8 times in the past year even lived in an abandoned house trying to not be found by this man. I’ve spent the past year being treated like I’m the one who pulled the trigger people treat me like I have the plague because I seen a murder and others just try to get away from me as fast as possible like I have a 🎯 on my back and they are afraid of what may happen to them if they get to close at the wrong moment my whole life stopped that day I haven’t been able to work don’t go out and do things anymore out of constant worry about running into him or his people since we live in the same town and sadest part is we didn’t even know the man neither of us had ever seen him before That night when he showed up at our freinds house and opened fire and the one who died was one of the two that was no part of any events leading to that night but we’ve paid most for it him with his life and dying and my life as well cause none of this is living by any means I Lost everything every last thing and no support system all all it’s quite frankly hell most days I wish to God to call me home it has to be better then this hurt and lost and emptiness I feel everyday and nowhere to turn to so just fumble my way through it day in and day out and stay compleatly detached from society and public and the people I do love cause it’s the only way I can make sure to keep them safe…please stop taking such risk with our lives it’s not ok it’s sick honestly!
Is the Xanax kicking in?
