Woman driving behind Pct. 4 constable deputy says she witnessed his ambush: ‘It was overkill’

A woman who witnessed a Harris County Precinct 4 constable deputy’s murder is opening up about what she saw.

Deanna Carraway said she was driving along Richmond Avenue in southwest Houston with her 21-year-old daughter and a friend on Tuesday when she noticed the suspect’s Chevy Impala.

“It was muffler dragging, sparks flying behind it,” Carraway told Eyewitness News on Thursday.

Curious, Carraway said she looked to see who was driving it.

“He was driven. He was on a mission,” she remembered of the suspect.

But it wasn’t until she got to the red light at the intersection with Fondren Road that she said she realized that mission was murder.

“He left his car in the middle of the lane, ran by my daughter’s window, cut in front of my car, and went to this guy and just unloaded four (shots) in the driver’s seat,” Carraway said.

Multiple gunshots shattered the driver’s side window of the black Jaguar SUV in front of her, killing Cpl. Maher Husseini.
