Authorities in Houston have set up SWAT teams as they search for the suspect they say fatally shot a sheriff’s deputy in an apparent ambush.

Harris County Sheriff's Office deputy Fernando Esqueda, 28, was a five-year veteran of the department, Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said Thursday.– Authorities in the Houston-area are searching for a man suspected of fatally shooting a sheriff’s deputy in an apparent ambush after pistol-whipping a pizzeria clerk, authorities said Thursday.

A customer who came in to pick up a pizza he ordered got upset because the order was incorrect and pistol-whipped the clerk and fled, Lee said. The deputy notified others that he had found the vehicle, and was communicating with another deputy when he was apparently ambushed, Lee said. When others arrived, they found Esquela shot multiple times and rushed him to the hospital, where he died.
