A Missouri police officer was killed by a suspect authorities believe to be an illegal alien on Sunday, Sept. 22.
St. Louis Metropolitan Police officer David Lee died after being hit by a car on I-70 while responding to a separate incident along the interstate.
The driver of the vehicle, Ramon Chavez-Rodriguez, was reportedly intoxicated at the time and driving without a license. He was also travelling at 18mph over the 55mph speed limit when he lost control of the car, according to a court affidavit.
Chavez-Rodriguez, who lives locally, “does not have legal status in the United States” as per the SLMPD’s probable cause statement. He has been charged with DWI – death of law enforcement or emergency personnel, exceeding posted speed limit, and operating a vehicle on a highway without a valid license, and will remain in jail without bond. He had also been on probation for an assault charge in 2020.
Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley called for the Biden-Harris administration to “CLOSE THE BORDER [sic]” following another fatal incident involving an illegal alien. Likewise, social media users noted the far-left Black Lives Matter movement had remained silent despite the killing of a Black police officer.
Others blamed the federal government for failing to prevent illegal immigration into the United States.
This doesn’t fit their twisted little Narrative, RIP Officer Lee.
