HENDERSON COUNTY \u2014 Our news partner KETK has confirmed that the suspect involved in the Oct. 17 triple homicide in Mabank has died. The suspect, Christopher Kyle Reid, is accused of having killed three people at around 2:30 a.m. at the Cedar Creek Cove Subdivision in Mabank. When deputies arrived at the scene, they found the bodies of a woman and a man with apparent gunshot wounds.<\/p>\n
Another woman shot at the scene was transported to a hospital, where she died. The deceased have been identified as: Kimberly Simpson, 51, Connie Patrick, 72, Ronny Hammonds, 57.<\/p>\n
The Henderson County Sheriff\u2019s Office said that Simpson and Connie were both shot multiple times, along with Hammonds, who also had injuries from blunt force trauma and multiple stab wounds.<\/p>\n
Two other victims, ages 24 and 70, were hospitalized. The 24-year-old has since been released from the hospital, while the 70-year-old remains hospitalized but is awake and responsive, the sheriff\u2019s office confirmed.<\/p>\n
The Ennis Police Department said the driver of a 2003 Dodge Caravan, who was later revealed to be Reid, the suspect, drove into the southwest entrance of a local Buc-ees at around 5 a.m. and hit and pinned a pedestrian against a sales display near the main entrance.<\/p>\n
Once the vehicle came to a stop, Reid shot himself in the head, the police department said. The pedestrian, an Oklahoma woman in her 30s, who was passing through Ennis, was taken to a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
