A man found shot to death in a car that slammed into a pole early this morning appears to be a law enforcement officer. The man was discovered slumped inside the car after it ran into the pole. The officer was off duty and was not in uniform.

Harris County Precinct 4 Deputy Constable Ronnie Earl Brewer, 47, was found shot to death in his personal car. Two suspects, a man and a woman have been arrested. Robbery appeared to be the motive. Sources said a woman apparently lured Brewer to the secluded spot, where a man was waiting to rob him.

If it could happen to a LEO, who is presumably aware of surroundings, it could happen to anyone. I'll try and be more aware of my surroundings. Another Houston crime story that worries me.

Police are now suspecting "road rage" as the motive for the killing. The evidence is suggesting that the officer was driving his vehicle when we was shot. The police released a suspect that they had earlier arrested.

Here's an update. Two people were arrested for the murder.

Lee Eldridge Sonier, 31, and Judy Lucille Hambrick, 40, were charged in the shooting of Ronnie Brewer. Hambrick was arrested on Tuesday on charges of theft of a firearm. Police said Hambrick admitted taking Brewer’s weapon.

A disturbing update. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/chr ... 23514.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Court documents state that on the night of his death, Brewer visited a drug house with Hambrick and Sonier, who is accused of later robbing and shooting the deputy after he engaged in sex with Hambrick.
