Guest guest Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 For those who didn't, Dr. Rick Lohstroh M.D., passed away last Friday. He was an ER physician at UTMB in Galveston.

Rick Lohstroh, 41, was struck several times Friday as he sat in his sport utility vehicle, said Sgt. B.E. of the County Sheriff's Department. The boy, using his mother's gun, fired through the back seat before getting out of the vehicle and continuing to shoot, said. Lohstroh, a doctor at the University of Texas Medical Branch, died on the way to a hospital. The shooting happened outside the home where the boy lived with his mother and 7-year-old brother, who were inside at the time, said. Lohstroh and the boy's mother shared custody of the children. County Sheriff's Deputy Jeff Dixie would not discuss the boy's whereabouts or charges. Authorities said they had been called to the home before in an ongoing family dispute.
