State plays surveillance and patrol video as aggravated‑assault trial against Michael Brashear begins
Summary
The jury heard opening statements and police testimony in the aggravated-assault case against Michael Brashear; prosecutors presented surveillance, patrol and body‑camera footage and officers testified that muzzle flashes appeared on video, that a handgun was thrown from the passenger side and that a firearm later recovered matched scene documentation.
The trial of the State of Texas v. Michael Keith Brashear Jr. began before the 252nd District Court with the jury sworn and an opening statement from the prosecutor outlining the state's theory that a bar fight at Sadie's Bar and Grill on May 31, 2023 led to shots being fired at the bar and later toward officers in the parking lot.
Prosecutor Coleman told jurors the state would show surveillance and patrol-car video and call witnesses to place the defendant in the passenger seat of a vehicle that fired shots. "This defendant fired shots in the direction of those officers," Coleman said while previewing surveillance and in‑car footage the state planned to show.
