Anthony Demillo Williams, an 18-year-old African American, was shot and killed in Bedias, Texas, on October 14, 2021. Deputies responded just before 11 p.m. to reports of multiple gunshots near Leon and Sycamore Street. Williams was located at the scene and taken to a nearby medic station, then later pronounced dead at Madisonville St. Joseph’s Emergency Room. His body was sent to Southwest Forensic Sciences in Dallas for an autopsy.

Investigators identified two Bedias residents, Alfredo Garza, 19, and Eric Damian Segovia, 20, and arrested them four days after the shooting. They were initially charged with Criminal Mischief and Deadly Conduct/Discharge of a Firearm; Garza faced additional misdemeanor charges. After autopsy and ballistic testing, a Grimes County grand jury returned indictments on December 28, 2022, for murder and aggravated assault from a vehicle, and both were arraigned in district court. Anyone with information about the case or Williams’ movements that night is asked to come forward.
