LUBBOCK, Texas – The Lubbock Police Department has identified the victim in Saturday morning’s shooting as 17-year-old Dylan Montes.

LPD said it is still investigating the shooting that took place around 4:00 a.m. on Saturday in the 2300 block of 143rd Street, and whether it was an accidental shooting.

Montes’ parents, Simona Vasquez and Rito Ramirez spoke to EverythingLubbock.com on Monday, and said they believe the shooting was an accident. They also believe the person responsible for pulling the trigger was one of Montes’ friends.

Montes had a goal to graduate high school so he could support his girlfriend and two children; a one-year-old boy and a baby girl who was just over a week old

Shot by a friend at 4am in the morning?

If your family needs a DNA test to figure out who is actually related to each other, I’d say there’s a good chance your life is going to be filled with disappointments.

That’s what I thought too

Parents aren’t married. Don’t have Amish sounding names

But all cultures are equal

My family had plenty of guns while I was growing up. No one got shot. Ate plenty of venison and rainbow trout ( anglers also)

He didn’t share either of their last names...

I reckon mom had him by another guy and she has not married the new guy either.

I don’t live by the gun, anymore than my life is centered on my skin color, political affiliation or profession. I live by my faith, family and flag. I am also a supporter of the 2A, and other things, but they don’t define me.

Glad you added the last two words. A trout shot by a .308 would be kinda messy.

"They described Dylan as caring, protective, and always putting himself before others."

Remember copy editors?

In Britain it’s basically impossible for a law abiding person to legally own a firearm. As a result if you watch the British Parliament (which I love to do) you routinely hear the Marxists decry “knife crime”. So once you need a license to buy a butter knife in Britain the next thing they’ll be screaming is “we must stop cricket bat violence!”.

Live by the gun, die by the gun...nothing to dispute there. It does not apply to all gun owners, just as gun violence does not apply to all gun use.

You shot your trout!?

YOU SIR, are an uncivilized bastid! :)

Dynamite is much easier and doesn’t leave poisonous lead in the creek.

Our HS played Lubbock Estacado. I expected Latinos but they were the blackest Mexicans I'd ever seen.

Estacado was converted into some sort of other program maybe 20 years ago but it use to be 95% black. The zip codes for Estacado, which is east Lubbock and all black. The Latino neighborhoods were on the north side.
