At a local restaurant called Pepper's an armed man was shot by an off duty HPD who was called by a patron. He arrived before Pasadena PD could get there. Not a lot of detail in the story.

That Peppers was Ernies before it was Peppers and Ernies moved I used to lunch there daily for years.
Used to have really good (and HUGE) Chicken Fried Steaks.

When you walk in, the bar is straight ahead, turn left to walk into the restaurant ... unless they changed it.

The article didn't say, so I'm guessing the Pasadena PD didn't shoot the GG holding a gun that just shot someone? Good for them.

So why wasn't the retired Houston Officer who was already on the scene carrying?

RPB,
Ernie's moved again after the first move from where Pepper's took over. I gave Ernie's a lot of business to cater safety award meals for the operators on my units when I was working in the refinery business. Really good food, but I think the owner had some problems. They went out of business several years ago but they did open a limited hour restaurant recently.

WARNING! OFF TOPIC...

There is an Ernie's Pit Barbecue in Greenville, TX. I believe it is still owned by Ernie's widow.

You see Ernie fell off of his tractor one day. Unfortunately, he was pulling a disc plow.

They still sell his signature sandwich, the Chopped Ernie.

True story.
