Description

The record reflects that the deceased, Albert D. Vera, and three friends were drinking beer at a table in the "La Perlita Lounge" in Von Ormy, Texas, on the night of September 20, 1969. The appellant, who did not know Vera, and another man were seated at the adjacent table with two women. Late in the evening Vera approached the appellants table, apparently intending to dance with one of the women, Lupe Martinez. Vera spoke briefly with Miss Martinez whereupon she slapped him. When Vera slapped her back the appellant immediately rose to intercede in her behalf. The ensuing "skirmish" apparently failed to develop into a fist fight because Vera backed out of the door of the lounge and fled. As the appellant was running from the bar in pursuit, he was seen with his arm extended in front of him. At the same time three shots were fired. A neighbor who was startled by the report of the gun looked outside, heard another report and saw a flash at the end of the mans outstretched arm. The appellant walked back to the lounge with a pistol in his hand. When one of the individuals who had been sitting at the table with Vera asked, "Whats the matter with you? You crazy or what?" appellant said, "You want the same too?" Appellant then got in his automobile and left. Shortly after the sheriff arrived, Veras body was discovered near the garage on the premises adjacent to the lounge. The appellant was arrested at Batesville, Texas, on September 22nd.
