Aaron M. Sprecher/AP What To Know Police were called to the Motel 6 in the 12700 block of LBJ Freeway just after 5 a.m. on June 20 for reports of a shooting, according to the Garland Police Department. Officers found Morales with a gunshot wound. He was taken to a hospital, where he later died, Fox 4 reported. Four witnesses who arrived with Morales were interviewed at the scene. One woman told police she had been robbed earlier and that Morales began messaging the suspects while posing as a prostitute to set up a meeting at Motel 6, according to the arrest affidavit obtained by Fox 4. Surveillance footage shows a pickup carrying Morales arriving at the motel around 4:21 a.m., followed by a Toyota and a gray Acura, according to the outlet. Just after 5 a.m., Morales confronted a man from the Toyota, leading to a struggle. A second suspect arrived and shot Morales, while the third suspect, driving the Acura, pulled up to the scene before all three fled in the Acura and Toyota, Fox 4 reported. Morales was left motionless and bleeding. Two women from the pickup approached his body. One appeared to call 911. The first officer arrived at 5:19 a.m. and began first aid, according to Fox 4. Detectives later linked the incident to an earlier robbery that morning at the Deluxe Inn on Leon Road. Surveillance video showed the same Acura and Toyota from the Motel 6 scene, Fox 4 reported. A woman at the Deluxe Inn told police that two Hispanic men forced their way into her room, held her at gunpoint, sexually assaulted her, and stole money and jewelry before leaving, the outlet said. She later identified the men in the Motel 6 surveillance video as her attackers. Police then arrested Jimenez, Bellorin-Guzman and Trivino-Cruz, Fox 4 reported. Jimenez told investigators that the group had committed more than 25 robberies, often targeting sex workers, who they believed were unlikely to report the crimes. Trivino-Cruz said they had committed two additional robberies earlier that day, according to Fox 4. What People Are Saying Garland Police Department wrote on Facebook: "Investigators believe this to be an isolated incident and are actively working to determine the events leading up to the shooting." What Happens Next Authorities have not confirmed the countries of origin for the suspects. The investigation remains ongoing, according to the Garland Police Department.

‘Extremely Unscientific Process:' Texas Woman's White Toyota 4Runner Gets Stolen. Then She Goes Looking for It
A Texas woman is chronicling the search for her stolen white Toyota 4Runner. And she's asking anyone with experience in recovering stolen vehicles for help. TikTok user Alyssa ( @alyssas_outfits_ ) was the victim of a car theft just over a week ago. She last saw her white Toyota 4Runner at the Hotel Indigo in Austin on the morning of July 22. After turning to Reddit for suggestions on where and how to recover stolen vehicles, she and two friends went on a day-long journey to track down her 4Runner . 'We formed a search committee to drive around all the spots that Reddit suggested we look,' she says in a post documenting their search. 'We were downtown, on the eastside, along Airport [Boulevard].' 'And, let me tell you, there are a lot of white 4Runners in Austin.' Get the best news, reviews, columns, and more delivered straight to your inbox, daily. back Sign up For more information, read our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use . As one of her friends drove, Alyssa clicked her keyfob at every white 4Runner they passed, but none of them were hers. 'An extremely unscientific process,' she admits. 'If anyone has any suggestions of where to look for a stolen car, my DMs are open.' 'Easy to Leave Cars There' In the comments section of the video, viewers did not hesitate to offer advice from personal experience with this type of situation. 'Apartment complexes, because it's easy to leave cars there,' suggested one person. Trending Now 'Can Anyone Explain?:' Man Pumps Gas at Shell Station. Then He Takes a Closer Look at Where His Fuel Is Coming From 'They Have About 70% Tread Life Left:' Man Buys Tires Off Facebook Marketplace. Then He Takes Them to Discount Tire 'It's probably across the border at this point,' said a second person. 'This exact same thing happened to my ex in 2013. We drove around Austin for two days, going to all the locations his iPad pinged off (it was in the truck). We ended up finding the truck in South Texas—just about to cross the border.' 'Vehicles nowadays have telematics,' said someone else, referring to GPS technology . 'Have the dealer and finance company activate yours.' Another person said, 'You need to check junkyards. They might strip your car and dump it at junkyards.' What Should You Do If Your Car Is Stolen? A Kiplinger article echoes some of the advice in the comments, including putting an AirTag in your vehicle and purchasing other anti-theft measures, such as steering wheel and pedal locks. The author also recommends making sure any big-ticket personal items you leave in your vehicle are covered under your homeowner's or renter's insurance policy. If your car is stolen, obviously, you want to call the police, your local DMV, your insurance company, and your lender to let them all know about the theft. If your wallet was in the car, you're in for another series of phone calls to cancel everything. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles also notes that reporting the theft immediately is key because it protects you from liability if the vehicle is involved in an accident that harms other people after being stolen. A lot of people in the comments voiced frustration with the police's response to vehicle thefts. The Kiplinger article says that it's common for police to do the bare minimum with regard to recovering stolen vehicles. However, you have a better chance of success if you cooperate with officers and check back in regularly for updates. Motor1 reached out to Alyssa via TikTok comment and direct message for comment.
