Lawsuit: San Marcos Police Refused Escort to Protect Biden Bus

Police officials in San Marcos refused to provide an escort for a Joe Biden campaign bus when it was surrounded by supporters of then-President Donald Trump on an interstate, an amended lawsuit filed over the 2020 encounter alleges. 

The updated lawsuit, filed Friday, included transcribed 911 audio recordings, The Texas Tribune reported. The suit alleges that law enforcement officers in San Marcos "privately laughed" and "joked about the victims and their distress" in the audio recordings.
