The brutal death of an InfoWars reporter has shocked the alternative media landscape and raised concerns about violence in the Austin area.
According to the New York Post, InfoWars reporter Jamie White was found dead with "obvious signs of trauma" near his residence in South Austin around midnight on Sunday.
InfoWars founder Alex Jones announced White's death on Monday, describing him as the outlet's best writer and a close friend. The incident occurred as White was returning home from work, with police discovering his body in an apartment complex parking lot.
Jones attributed the tragedy partly to policies implemented by Austin District Attorney Jose Garza, whom he associated with George Soros. The InfoWars founder expressed his determination to ensure that those responsible would face consequences for their actions.
The Austin Police Department has launched an investigation into the incident, though no suspects have been identified. Law enforcement officials were observed collecting evidence from a second-floor apartment at the complex where White's body was found.
Jones shared his observations from the crime scene in a Monday broadcast, describing a significant blood presence in the parking lot area. The police have maintained discretion regarding specific details as the investigation continues.
White's death marks the eighth homicide recorded in Austin this year, adding to growing unease about violent crime in the Texas capital. The incident has sparked discussions about safety in residential areas, particularly during late-night hours.
Local news outlet Fox 7 confirmed that emergency responders transported White to a nearby hospital, where he ultimately succumbed to his injuries. The exact nature of the trauma has not been publicly disclosed by authorities.
KXAN's coverage of the scene revealed an extensive police presence and detailed investigation procedures, including the examination of both the parking lot and nearby residential units.
