Perplexity surrounds the murder of a Texas father while driving back from his job at NASA

A Texas father has been murdered on a freeway while he was driving home from NASA by a stray bullet – prompting a desperate manhunt for a suspect. 

Robert Schorovsky, a 37-year-old member of a Neo-Nazi group, was behind the wheel of his box truck in the vicinity of the 7200 block on the Gulf Freeway when he was shot around 10:30 pm on November 2.

As a result of the gunshot, Schorovsky lost control of his large commercial truck, colliding with two other vehicles before finally stopping near the Woodridge exit.

Emergency services promptly transported him to a nearby medical center in critical condition, but unfortunately, he passed away from his wounds two days later. Authorities currently speculate that the tragic event was likely sparked by a bout of road rage.

‘I think we’re all in shock. It’s been rough. One gunshot. There’s no holes in the truck, no windows shot out. Just the one,’ Schorovsky’s wife, Brittany Ray told KHOU11. 

The victim was a supervisor for Bright Lights, the company responsible for creating enormous holiday light displays on public buildings such as Houston Zoo and Galaxy Lights at the Johnson Space Center. 

According to Ray, he was on his way back from setting up the lights on the NASA building when the incident happened. 

She believes her husband was most probably driving with the windows down and had leaned over towards the passenger side to roll up the window when a single bullet struck him in the head. 

‘They tell us it can take up to three months before we find out what type of bullet it is,’ Ray said.

Officials have not yet discovered any video evidence or found any witnesses who can identify the suspect. 

‘I don’t think it was anything targeted or meant to be for him. It’s been tough but I think they’ve been a lot of help for me. Being here everyday and comforting me when I’m upset. And a little less attitude,’ Ray said. 

Apart from his wife, the victim also had three children – aged 14, 11 and nine. 

Schorovsky’s obituary describes him as a ‘hard worker and took pride that he could fix just about anything’ and was ‘focused on making and keeping his Brittany happy.’

‘Robbie loved to spend time with the family and make lasting memories. If he was not working, you might see him down at the neighborhood pond fishing to clear his mind.

‘There are many memories with the kids hiking, bike riding, and traveling that they will forever hold in their hearts. He was a hard worker and took pride that he could fix just about anything – including his white Chevy truck. 

‘His focus was on making and keeping his Brittany happy and would go as far as riding roller coasters with her even though he hated them. Robbie loved with all his heart and enjoyed helping those around him when he could.’

However, tribute pictures posted by a man named Gary Brewer on his obituary page show that the father of three had a full Adolf Hitler face tattoo on his chest. 

The images were captioned ‘Bolted for Life’ and featured the two stark S’s in the form of lightning bolts – suggesting he may have been a white supremacist and pro-Nazi. 

 A reward of up to $5,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest or charges in the case. 

This comes weeks after a high school hockey player died after a stray bullet struck him while he was riding in a car with his father on a busy highway. 

Colin Brown, 16, and his dad Calvin were driving on Interstate 55 in St. Louis while on their way home from a hockey game at the Affton Ice Rink on November 23. 

At around 10.30m near Loughborough and Bates, an unexpected bullet struck the car and hit the young player. 

In a state of panic, Calvin drove to Broadway and Walnut in the City of St. Louis, and then called the police. While officers arrived at the scene, the distressed father began shouting for help. 

A young woman named Lily Paniucki, who was in the area for a friend’s birthday party, heard Calvin’s cries and quickly rushed to the pair. 

Paniucki later told First Alert 4 she performed CPR on Colin for nearly 20 minutes but was not able to revive him. 

The Christian Brothers College (CBC) High School student succumbed to his injuries on November 27 at the hospital.
