As this fiasco unfolds it appears there may have been an undercover officer who instigated the whole thing. This is copy and pasted from a comments section at another site.

“Here is what the Waco Police won’t tell anyone.

The National Guard was on standby at the next exit waiting for stuff to happen.

A well respected co-worker’s son is in the Guard. They thought their weekend duty was to be in Oklahoma to help tornado victims.

They were redirected to Waco and told to wait. Instead of helping people, the Guard was waiting on the side of the road doing nothing.

Guess the cops got a little cocky knowing the National Guard was staged a mile away.


Can anyone confirm or deny?

My husband drives a truck and was back and forth through there right before and after it happened. He never mentioned national guard, but he said afterwards there was a heavy police presence.

I live nearby and drove through that intersection a couple times that afternoon. There were no national guard, just a lot of Waco Police, McLennan Co. Sheriff, and State Troopers and all their squad cars all over the place. They had the I-35 access road closed off for a while.
