A grand jury has been empaneled and
is poised to consider the cases of 177 people arrested after the May
shootout involving bikers and police in Waco.
The
McLennan County district attorney subpoenaed two high-ranking members
of the Confederation of Clubs and Independents, a coalition of
motorcycle clubs that advocates biker safety, to provide information
Wednesday about the confederation's meeting that was to take place May
17 at a roadside restaurant.
Nine
people died and 20 were injured during the shooting, which authorities
say arose from an apparent confrontation between the Bandidos and the
Cossacks motorcycle clubs.
None
of the 177 people arrested and held for days or weeks on $1 million
bonds has been charged. It remains unclear whose bullets struck those
who died or were hurt.
