Near Brownsville, Texas

We heard that a couple was murdered near Brownsville by some people who wanted their truck. Does anyone know if this is an ongoing problem etc.

    If you want to know the safety of an area, go to Google street view you can see if homes have bars on their windows. That’s all I need to know a area.
  • I think the people, I know that you can't blame the victim, were parked in a rather isolated place along the beach. Far from Brownsville, or the border. Bad people can be anywhere.
  • Not unusual in Southern Califonria. Keep your doors locked and be ready to acellerate.
  • Isolated incident and they are locked up. They were from the USA but thought they could escape to Mexico.
  • This actually happened some 175 miles north of Brownsville, near Corpus Christi. Happened back around the 1st of November.
