Four arrested in fatal shooting of man during restaurant robbery
HOUSTON – Four people have been arrested in the fatal shooting of a man during a restaurant robbery.
Herman Ray Browning, Jr. was inside the Huong Giang Hue Restaurant with his wife and 8-year-old son on New Year's Day when police said two armed men wearing masks tried to rob the restaurant and everyone inside. They said Browning fought back and they shot him.
His family watched it all.
Houston police said Friday that four people are all charged with capital murder in connection with Browning's death. Dadriana Holmes, 19; Tiala Alexander, 20; Telavell Coleman, 18; and Enzo Ubadimma, 18, are all being held without bond. Their next court appearance is scheduled for Monday.
Browning, 57, was also a Marine and a longtime employee of Phonoscope Communications.
