1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,839
Several media outlets reported the death of
Luis Alfredo Pacheco, thirty- four years

2
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:10,240
old in the city of Houston,
son of the President of the Chamber of

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:16,359
Deputies of the Dominican Republic, Alfredo
Pacheco. Then the information made it known

4
00:00:16,399 --> 00:00:21,399
before all this exclusively in his radio
program, the communicator Julio Martínez Poso.

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,160
Twenty- two minutes ago, the
President of the Chamber of Deputies confirmed the

6
00:00:28,199 --> 00:00:34,240
information on his Twitter account. It
publishes the President of the Chamber of Deputies,

7
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,159
Alfredo Pacheco. With great regret I
communicate the unexpected death of my son,

8
00:00:38,679 --> 00:00:43,159
Luis Alfredo Pacheco Rojas, who resided
outside the country. This fact is

9
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:49,759
currently under investigation. I sincerely thank
friends and colleagues for their solidarity at this

10
00:00:49,799 --> 00:00:55,600
difficult time. Respectfully, I request
understanding from my friends of the media,

11
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:03,079
whom I will keep duly informed by
this or. Last night, at midnight

12
00:01:03,119 --> 00:01:07,159
hours, several media outlets dedicated to
broadcasting world news, from the hip hop

13
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:14,079
scene in the city of Houston had
published an attack that Baby' s rapper

14
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:21,599
had suffered. Says the note published
in Saige, a page dedicated to the

15
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,920
theme of Houston City' s hip
hopera move, that Houston d' Baby

16
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:33,959
' s popular rapper, his Suuwawa
truck, was shot, according to reports

17
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,760
yesterday night. He published this update
this morning, where he included a dead

18
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:42,000
man and a person in critical condition, while he was at a fuel station.

19
00:01:42,719 --> 00:01:49,799
According to witnesses, four men took
long guns and shot him. And

20
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:57,280
since the first report was made,
this description has been discussed. Then several

21
00:01:57,319 --> 00:02:02,560
media outlets have published those reported by
world- wide local channel of the city

22
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,159
of Houston. It is a report
of about three minutes and we will hear

23
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:13,080
what the report collects at this time
of the morning, when it is known

24
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,280
of the death of the son of
the President of the Chamber of Deputies,

25
00:02:17,759 --> 00:02:21,840
Alfredo Pacheco. Luis Alfredo Pacheco,
thirty- four, last night in a

26
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:25,159
shooting in the city of Houston.
It is a news item in full development.

27
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:29,960
In fact, the press conference just
ended five minutes ago. Yes,

28
00:02:30,039 --> 00:02:34,759
indeed, they' re looking for
four suspects who left here after shooting.

29
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,919
They' d all be Hispanic.
The two people, including the person who

30
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:43,360
died, just confirmed by the police. He was also a thirty- four

31
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,360
- year- old Hispanic. Let' s watch this video shared by one

32
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,439
of the witnesses to see what happened
here after seven sixteen minutes, all that

33
00:02:50,520 --> 00:03:00,560
happened at this gas station on carafon
Roy, La Wayside drives, in fact,

34
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:06,280
in front of a bakery well known
to our Hispanic community. As I

35
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,639
mentioned at seven sixteen minutes this happened. Four people were inside that black scalay

36
00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:15,080
vehicle, which was literally turned on, as you mentioned, to Plobo.

37
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,960
While two vehicles arrived out of nowhere. They put on just the front of

38
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,000
that black vehicle. When these four
people inside the truck realized that they would

39
00:03:24,039 --> 00:03:30,240
see these four other people who wanted
to shoot, they ran into the store.

40
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,599
That' s where some of them
get hurt. One person was transported

41
00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:39,360
to the hospital in critical condition.
He' d be twenty- nine years

42
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,680
old. The other person who died
would be thirty- four. As I

43
00:03:43,759 --> 00:03:46,759
mentioned to this person, he was
also transported to the hospital where he died.

44
00:03:47,159 --> 00:03:52,400
The other two people we understand would
be collaborating with the authorities. Let

45
00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:57,400
' s hear what he said a
few moments ago, as Adrián Rodríguez mentioned

46
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:03,120
to them, with the Houston police. They had riffles and there was a

47
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:10,280
lot of shooting. Here are some
of the Hispanics who were in the skeleton

48
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,639
that was black. She passed away. He died in ben tup He was

49
00:04:14,719 --> 00:04:21,160
thirty- four years old. Another
one they' ve broken up is still

50
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:27,319
in Memorial Herman' s hospital.
The doctors are still working with him there.

51
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,680
Another thing the police mentioned. They
believe at this hour. They were

52
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:39,800
targeted by these gunmen. That is
to say, it is not an isolated

53
00:04:39,879 --> 00:04:44,920
issue or that the Community may be
in danger. It was also reported that

54
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,040
the police at some point were a
Waldmer store that is very close to this

55
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:53,199
place. Apparently witnesses and Jeron have
seen at least some of the suspects downtown

56
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,959
this store. The police went to
the place. They didn' t find

57
00:04:56,959 --> 00:05:00,040
anything. Obviously, this is still
in full development, as we can,

58
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,399
that is to say, so far
there are four people who are still at

59
00:05:02,399 --> 00:05:06,279
large from justice. There they saw
in that video a grey Dusch and they

60
00:05:06,319 --> 00:05:12,040
are also looking for a Mercedes Vans
are also gray. There' s a

61
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,519
lot of information we' re going
to try right now to recap for you.

62
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,199
At 10: 30, we'
ll bring you more details. We

63
00:05:16,319 --> 00:05:21,480
are your only fully live Spanish medium. Bringing you this breaking news, we

64
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:26,160
' ll be back at 10:
30 with more information. Well, there

65
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,839
' s the information published by Telemundo
on his Houston city channel, making the

66
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:36,839
report of this fact where the President, the son of the President of the

67
00:05:36,959 --> 00:05:41,040
Chamber of Deputies of the Dominican Republic, would have died. Thirty- four

68
00:05:41,079 --> 00:05:46,160
years old, he worked, according
to other reports, from also working as

69
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:51,040
a DJ and recently in the local
press came out a job where on a

70
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:56,600
half tour he was doing here,
because he talked about his career as a

71
00:05:56,639 --> 00:05:59,160
musician and because he had chosen music
instead of politics. Unlike her father,

72
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,680
he resided in that city. According
to what the President of the Chamber of

73
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:10,360
Deputies himself clarified this morning, he
had time devoted to this subject, wave,

74
00:06:10,639 --> 00:06:14,560
musical, etcetera. And apparently,
then, this whole situation occurred last

75
00:06:14,639 --> 00:06:18,839
night where this thirty- four-
year- old lost his life in the

76
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:25,079
city of Houston, the son of
Chamber of Deputies President Alfredo Pacheco. Luis

77
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,560
Alfredo Pacheco died in the middle of
a shooting that was apparently a trifulca.

78
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,600
He doesn' t know how hip
hop music is going and moving in the

79
00:06:38,639 --> 00:06:42,120
United States, a really crazy thing
that' s very unfortunate. From here

80
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,319
we extend our most sense. Think
of me as the Speaker of the Chamber

81
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,319
of Deputies, his family and the
same as him, so he asks him

82
00:06:50,399 --> 00:06:56,000
to understand that it is a very
difficult moment and that he must be understanding

83
00:06:56,079 --> 00:07:00,800
and empathetic with a man who has
just learned hours ago that his son was

84
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:06,800
arto, murdered in the city of
Houston last night. Regretful, horrible.

85
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:14,800
That no father is ready for him
for some kind of news like that.

86
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:24,319
Break the cycle totally good look as
he was DJ. Yes and certainly,

87
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:29,720
like you, pointed out, he
was here not long ago, just a

88
00:07:29,759 --> 00:07:36,439
couple of weeks ago, doing,
doing some sort of presentations, half tours

89
00:07:36,519 --> 00:07:44,160
and that kind of thing. Texas
is a city where many Dominicans are going

90
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,759
to make a living there. You
imagine the Dominicans are still working there in

91
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:54,959
Texas and it is a city where
many artists go to work, they are

92
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,319
going to produce money and then come
here to the country with that money and

93
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,360
record their productions and do their work
as artists. And it is a city

94
00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:09,399
that gives many opportunities, precisely to
the people they want, because it seems

95
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:18,639
that there is a lot of work
for Latinos in that city and most of

96
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,560
them are many artists here. It
is used that many artists are supposedly going

97
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:28,680
to degive to the United States if
they are really working in Texas on the

98
00:08:28,759 --> 00:08:31,920
question of oil and that kind of
cations, and they are going to make

99
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:37,759
a living, already, to earn
a money and then invest it in the,

100
00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:45,679
in their career, in music,
exactly chasing their dream and is one

101
00:08:45,799 --> 00:08:50,639
of the cities where many Dominican artists. I' m surprised that he may

102
00:08:50,639 --> 00:08:52,159
have worked with one of the artists
from here, in that city, because

103
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,960
if he says if he moved in
that environment, it' s very possible

104
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,919
that he' s coinciding with one
of his artists is over there, because

105
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,120
they go through those grounds at all
times. But it' s still pitiful.

106
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,720
Terrible death. He' s a
person like that terrible and more like

107
00:09:11,799 --> 00:09:20,639
that is certainly the most unfortunate thing
yet that' s under investigation. This

108
00:09:20,879 --> 00:09:24,399
one is known to die, but
obviously remember that it leads to a very

109
00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:30,679
long investigation. At the time I
imagine that Alfredo Pacheco and his family will

110
00:09:30,799 --> 00:09:37,240
give details of everything that happened,
how things happened and really how those parts,

111
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:46,720
friends and family will work. I
imagine they' ll bring him to

112
00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:52,200
the country in due course and give
him his burial here, he doesn'

113
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,200
t have families in the country.
Over there is the rhythm of the morning,

114
00:09:54,279 --> 00:09:58,879
this rhythm ninety- six five.
Then, summarizing the information that early

115
00:09:58,879 --> 00:10:03,000
in the morning, he shared other
national media after the report that was released

116
00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:09,399
by media like The Houston Chronicle and
Telemundo Houston. Last night, a shooting

117
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:13,519
in that city you at a golf
station in New Houston City, where a

118
00:10:13,799 --> 00:10:24,039
group of armed people ambushed a Kadyla
vehicle that scalate was shot. There were

119
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,360
four people inside that vehicle. Of
these four people, two were injured.

120
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:31,919
One of the wounded ended up dying. There is another one who is in

121
00:10:31,919 --> 00:10:41,720
critical condition, apparently, in this
shooting, because it was where he lost

122
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,519
his life. It seems to you
because the information we have heard so far

123
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,879
does not confirm the names, but
it is the only fact reported last night

124
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,200
in the city of Houston, where
there was a death and a critically wounded,

125
00:10:52,879 --> 00:10:56,879
and that is what we have known
so far. The son of the

126
00:10:56,919 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Luis Alfredo Pacheco, thirty- four years

127
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:03,519
old, I saw in the night
scene of the city of Houston as DJ,

128
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:09,519
and I was also starting a career
as an artist, also because of

129
00:11:09,799 --> 00:11:15,159
the work of DJ. So from
here I join the solidarity expressed by Peter

130
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:22,240
and the team and extend it from
here to a hug and our most ailments

131
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,679
to the President of the Chamber of
Deputies in such an atrocious fact that,

132
00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:30,799
as Jefferson has said, no father
should have to live it because it breaks

133
00:11:30,919 --> 00:11:35,840
with the cycle of life, which
is that parents have to be or should

134
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:41,159
be the ones that their children bury
and not the opposite
