A Texas man was arrested for allegedly beating another man to death at a gas station, possibly because he believed the alleged victim threw a beer bottle at him.
Lansselo Martinez, 22, was taken into custody on Wednesday, two weeks after the beating death of 38-year-old Ye Myint Aung. In a Facebook post , the Harris County Sheriff’s Office said that Martinez attacked Aung on the morning of May 23, hitting him in the head at least 20 times. According to surveillance video from in and around the store attached to the gas station, Aung reportedly staggered outside the building and collapsed.
Twelve hours later, a friend found him unconscious and called 911.
