Anthony William Benesh III, 44, of Austin, Texas, was shot and killed on March 18, 2006. Benesh, his girlfriend, and his two young sons were leaving Saccone’s Pizza in Northwest Austin when a single bullet from a high-powered rifle struck him in the head, killing him instantly in a crowded parking lot. No witness saw who fired the shot.

Investigators noted Benesh had recently been displaying Hells Angels colors and was trying to start a Texas chapter of the Hells Angels without permission from Bandidos leadership. Police believed the shooting was a targeted attack connected to that dispute between the rival clubs.

The killing left a family and community reeling; the circumstances of the shooting in a public place with children present remain a stark detail. Anyone with information about that evening or the dispute leading up to it is asked to come forward.
