Police say ^Otis McKane, 31, was at the police station early Sunday morning talking to an officer through an intercom. They did not reveal why McKane was there.
After he left, Officer Marconi was shot while writing a traffic ticket in his patrol car just outside the police station.
Police said yesterday that they don't believe the person getting a ticket had any connection to McKane, that McKane has a domestic assault record, that they don't believe McKane had any connection to Officer Marconi, and that McKane was under surveillance before his arrest.
No motive has been shared, except that the Chief believes Marconi was targeted because of his uniform.
The shooting came several hours after a man was fatally shot by police in San Antonio, but investigators have not linked the two incidents. In that shooting, a man was killed after police said he pointed a gun at officers following a seven-hour standoff at his ex-girlfriend’s home.
McKane will be charged with capital murder. Executing a cop in Texas is liking begging for the death penalty.
