SUMMARY: Austin Police have provided updates on a fatal officer-involved shooting that occurred last Tuesday. Officers responded to reports of an armed man, identified as 59-year-old Franklin Miller, breaking into a nail salon. Upon locating him shortly before midnight, police found Miller with a gun in his waistband. Attempts to deescalate the situation failed as Miller ignored commands and raised his weapon at the officers, resulting in five officers returning fire. A witness corroborated the events, describing a tense standoff before Miller aimed his gun. Body camera footage from the incident is set to be released next week.

A man killed in a North Austin officer-involved shooting on Sept. 10, was identified by police.

SUMMARY: Houston often experiences so-called “100-year floods,” but the term can be misleading. It does not imply that such floods occur only once a century; rather, it signifies a 1% chance of flooding in any given year. According to experts from FEMA, the US Geological Survey, and Harris County Flood Control District, this means a homeowner has a 26% chance of experiencing flooding in a 30-year mortgage period. Given the unpredictability of floods and the multiple watersheds in the area, residents should not become complacent and are urged to obtain flood insurance to protect against potential flooding at any time.

The KHOU 11 VERIFY team explains what this term means and what to really expect if you live in a 100-year flood plain.
