Back in September, the tragic news came down that revealed former NBA player Andre Emmett had senselessly lost his life when two men rolled up on him as he sat in his driveway and attempted to rob him.
Dallas police said 32-year-old Keith Johnson and 29-year-old Michael Lucky robbed and then shot Emmett outside of his home in Old East Dallas and both of those men have now been indicted on capital murder charges.
Emmett’s Ring home video camera captured the crime as he ran away and was shot from behind by the cowards.
Police stated the accused killers did not know Emmett before the shooting took place.
“He didn’t deserve this,” said Sasha Emmett, Andre’s sister, in an interview with WFAA shortly after his death. “There’s not one bad thing that I think anybody could say about him. He touched a lot of people’s lives, a lot of people’s hearts, and a lot of people looked up to him.”
