Denton police spokesman Shane Kizer said investigators have nothing new to report from the investigation of Sara Mutschlechner’s shooting death, but said the police now do not know the color, make or model of the SUV from which witnesses said shots rang following an apparent argument with Mutschlechner’s passengers.

Original reports said the SUV was either a dark Lexus or Toyota SUV. Witnesses told police that about five or six men filled the SUV.

Mutschlechner, who is said to have been driving a car full of people home Sunday morning, was shot in the head about 2 a.m., causing her to hit another vehicle before crashing into a utility pole. She died hours later at Denton Regional Medical Center.

Police are investigating a party that went down at Crisoforo Drive in Denton, where police said witnesses allege some of the men in the SUV were celebrating.

According to the police, “words were exchanged between the occupants of the SUV and the occupants in the victim’s vehicle” before a person fired multiple shots at Mutschlechner’s car.

And the people who threw the party and the people who were at the party remain silent.

So sad. I didn't know Sara, but I have a couple of former classmates of mind that did. I hope these heartless scumbags are found and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Arrest made of suspect in the shooting, Eric Jamal Johnson, in Yuma, Arizona. Perhaps trying to flee to Mexico? 

Did a quick search of the UNT directory and doesn't look like he is a student at North Texas.
