38-year-old Heriberto Ramirez killed in Tyler restaurant shooting, suspect Scottie Goble in custody
The suspect’s vehicle had license plates that read “certified firefighter.”
Tyler, Texas – Heriberto “Eddie” Ramirez tragically lost his life after being shot in the abdomen during an incident at Juniors Taqueria, a family-owned business in Tyler.
The suspect, identified as Scottie Lee Goble, and others had been previously expelled from the restaurant months ago due to a service-related dispute.
The incident occurred on Friday, October 11th, at approximately 12:20 PM.
The suspects returned to the restaurant, placed an order, and then complained that it was incorrect.
Despite the owners’ attempts to resolve the issue, the individuals continued to exhibit aggressive behavior towards other customers.
The owners decided to refund the suspects’ order and asked them to leave the establishment.
However, the confrontation continued outside, and Eddie Ramirez intervened to help his brother and de-escalate the situation.
The suspect then opened fire, fatally injuring Eddie.
The suspect’s vehicle had license plates that read “certified firefighter.”
While Tyler Police have not confirmed whether the plates belong to an official fire department or if the suspect is a volunteer firefighter, they are investigating the matter.
The suspect was apprehended at the scene and transported to the Smith County Jail. He is facing murder charges and has been assigned a bond of $500,000.
Eddie Ramirez’s mother, Blanca Ramirez, has expressed her gratitude for the prayers and support offered to the family during this difficult time.

Solomon Henderson, Antioch High School shooting suspect motive revealed in alleged manifesto
‘I was so miserable. I wanted to kill myself. I just couldn’t take anymore. I am a worthless subhuman, a living, breathing disgrace,’ the 17-year-old gunman allegedly wrote.
Authorities are investigating a chilling 47-page document reportedly written by 17-year-old Solomon Henderson, the suspected gunman responsible for the deadly shooting at Antioch High School in Nashville, Tennessee.
The manifesto, which surfaced online shortly before the tragic incident, offers a harrowing glimpse into the suspect’s thoughts, motives, and preparations leading up to the attack.

The document, allegedly posted to a social media account linked to Henderson, contained detailed plans for the shooting, including a layout of the school, photos of weapons he intended to use, and his personal struggles.
Henderson’s final entry was dated November 18—the same day that Metro Nashville Police Department responded to a hoax call reporting a school shooting at Antioch High School.
In one of the writings, Henderson reportedly expressed deep personal anguish and self-loathing, writing, “I was so miserable. I wanted to kill myself. I just couldn’t take anymore. I am a worthless subhuman, a living, breathing disgrace.”
He lamented feeling isolated and abandoned by friends, stating, “All my real-life friends outgrew me, acted like they didn’t f**ing know me. Becoming me was so humiliating. That’s why I spend all day dissociating.”*
Much of the alleged manifesto touches on Henderson’s struggles with race and identity.
In several passages, he expressed feelings of shame about his racial background and used inflammatory language targeting different ethnic and religious groups.
Henderson also mused over society’s perceptions of criminals, writing, “The difference between good and bad criminals depends on how well they were dressed. It depends on what weapon they used, their posture, their plan of attack… Even the very worst of criminal acts are forgiven by simply looking good.” He also listed goals to improve his physical appearance in preparation for the attack.
In a Q&A section of the manifesto, Henderson denied being a victim of bullying in the conventional sense but claimed he was “bullied in the cultural sense,” which he argued was a universal experience.
His criticisms of Antioch High School were harsh, calling it “a daycare” and claiming that students were incapable of independent thought. “In school, we’re taught to wake up early, shut up, sit for long periods of hours, do tasks you hate, then repeat.”
Investigators believe Henderson meticulously planned the attack, including links in the document to other manifestos, mass shooting guides, and images of the handgun, lockpicking tools, and ammunition he intended to use.
On the morning of the shooting, Henderson arrived at the school via bus and proceeded to a restroom, where police believe he retrieved the firearm.
Surveillance footage captured him wearing a hoodie as he entered the cafeteria just after 11:00 a.m., where he confronted 16-year-old Josselin Corea Escalante and opened fire.
Escalante was fatally shot, and another female student sustained a graze wound to her arm. Henderson then turned the weapon on himself, sustaining a fatal gunshot wound to the head.
A third student, a male, was injured during the commotion, suffering a facial injury unrelated to gunfire.
Henderson reportedly live-streamed the attack, and posts on his social media accounts revealed he had considered purchasing a GoPro camera to document the event but refrained due to concerns over explaining the purchase to his parents.
While the Metro Nashville Police Department has not yet officially verified the authenticity of the manifesto, Chief John Drake confirmed that investigators are examining materials found online.
“There are some materials on the internet that we’re looking at,” Chief Drake stated. “If someone had seen something and said something, maybe more could have been done.”
Law enforcement officials continue to urge the public to report any suspicious online activity that could indicate potential threats to school safety. The investigation remains ongoing as the community grapples with the devastating impact of this tragic event.
