On Sept. 23, Medina, 71, had just exited a McDonald’s restaurant at 430 Uvalde Road when she was robbed and run over. Investigators believe three people were involved in Medina’s death. Ford acted as a lookout during the robbery and it’s believed that he was the driver who fatally struck Medina as the trio were making their getaway.

Accomplice Andrew Williams, 40, was charged with capital murder in Medina’s death in early October.

Gonzalez said investigators are now working to identify and arrest the third person involved in Medina’s death.
