Temple Police Release Name of Fatal Shooting Victim
The body of 31-year-old Josh Colby Mitchell of Temple was discovered by his wife Wednesday evening. A GoFundMe has been set up for the family below.
Our news partners at KWTX reported that police soon began searching for a silver Volkswagen sedan driven by a teen suspect. That suspect actually decided to drive by the 'scene of the crime' late Wednesday evening in a car that matched the description of the Volkswagen. Police chased the car when it drove by the crime scene Wednesday evening, only to lose track of it.

Authorities got word of a car crash involving the same vehicle and received word that a citizen was detaining the suspect until police could arrive. As a teenager, the suspect was taken to the Bell County Juvenile Detention Center. The name was withheld.
A fundraiser has been established for the family of Josh Colby Mitchell. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife Dana Mitchel and their daughter Charli.
