James Allen Rodriguez, a 59-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed on his family’s ranch near D’Hanis, Texas, on November 21, 2015. Rodriguez, who hunted deer on the property, encountered 26-year-old Shane Outlaw, whom he believed to be a poacher. Rodriguez called his brother-in-law, Mike Mollere, for backup; both men were shot by Outlaw. Mollere survived; Rodriguez did not.

Outlaw had stolen a pickup truck earlier that day, overpowered Rodriguez and took his hunting rifle, then used it to shoot both Rodriguez and Mollere. After the shootings Outlaw stole Rodriguez’s Hummer, later crashing it so the vehicle burst into flames. Outlaw was arrested and charged with murder and attempted murder and remains in custody without bond.

Rodriguez was a San Antonio businessman, a 1974 graduate of Central Catholic High School, and worked in the family business Easy Drive, which supplied surveyors and construction companies. He is survived by a wife and grown daughter. What information can readers share about that night or about activity around the ranch on November 21, 2015?
