Russell Hyde Jr.

Russell Hyde Junior has been charged for the aggravated assault and wounding of Jose Gonzalez, who was shot on Sunday in Camalote Village. Gonzalez was shot to the chest as he and a friend were returning from Buena Vista and stopped at the farm belonging to the deceased father of Hyde Junior. The shooting victim had been working on the property for some time now and on Sunday evening was socializing with his friend and the shooter, believed to be Hyde Junior. An argument broke out between the trio before Gonzalez was shot to the chest. Hyde Junior was detained shortly after and was later arrested and charged for the crime.
