Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza announced Tuesday that police officers who fatally shot a suspect in an Austin bar shooting will not face criminal charges or be brought before a grand jury.

Garza said suggestions that he would pursue charges against the officers were "intentionally false" and political in nature. The district attorney called the officers heroes for their actions during the incident.

The announcement comes as bodycam footage from the shooting is scheduled to be released Thursday, providing additional documentation of the events that transpired during the encounter.

The shooting occurred at a bar in Austin, though specific details about the incident, including the date and circumstances that led to the fatal encounter, were not provided in the initial announcements.

The decision not to prosecute appears to settle questions about potential legal consequences for the officers involved, with Garza characterizing their actions as heroic rather than criminal in nature.
