ROUND ROCK, Texas — CBS Austin is learning new details Friday about the deadly Juneteenth celebration mass shooting in Round Rock as court documents are released for the third suspect.
Court documents reveal the shooting stemmed from a dispute between rival rap groups and that while firing, 18-year-old Keshawn Leray Dixon may have lost control of his gun while using a “glock switch” tool that converts a pistol into an automatic weapon.
The documents add that Dixon is a documented gang member and has an extensive history with Round Rock Police.
