4 DIE IN ATTEMPTED CARJACKING

May 10, 2006

A tragedy rocked the quiet neighborhood of Brentwood over the weekend when an attempted carjacking turned fatal. Haruto and Mio Tashibi were driving home from a family reunion just past midnight on Sunday with their two young daughters and two teenage nephews. Haruto Tashibi, who was driving, was forced to a stop by a car parked in the middle of the road. According to video obtained by the Austin police, three masked men confronted Haruto Tashibi. After a short discussion, they fired into the car, approximately thirty times.

Neighbors called emergency services once they heard the shots.

Haruto and Mio Tashibi and their two nephews were pronounced dead on the scene. Their two daughters survived, but both are in critical condition at St. David’s North Austin Medical Center.
