This is the news coverage:
On the morning of Sept. 20, HPD Senior Officer William “Bill” Jeffrey and Sgt. Michael Vance were part of a team of officers who attempted to execute a narcotics arrest warrant for Deon Ledet at a northeast Harris County apartment complex. Jeffrey was killed and Vance was critically injured when Ledet opened fire through the apartment door.
“If you pay particular attention to the body worn camera of the two officers, the sergeant and Officer Jeffrey at the door, you get the best indication that that weapon was firing in a fully automatic mode,” said ATF Special Agent in Charge Fred Milanowski.
Milanowski said his agency has encountered the devices before in Houston. About 100 of the so-called auto switches have been confiscated by ATF agents in Houston so far this year, and seven investigations across the area involved 11 handguns that had the device attached.
The auto switches work by applying force to a gun’s trigger bar to allow it to fire multiple rounds while a trigger is pressed. Guns can fire 30 rounds in just 2.6 seconds, Milanowski said.

I’m surprised there were not more casualties.
