Man paid to fake robbery in Houston killed by bystander

In January, FOX 26 reported on what police thought was a robbery turned homicide when a bystander shot the robber, but an investigation now shows that the robbery was fake. 22-year-old Rasshauud Scott was staging a robbery that two victims were in on when Jesus Vargas, a bystander, shot and killed him. Court records say that Scott was working with William X Winfrey, who instructed Scott to stage the robbery in exchange for money.
