April 28, 2026 Press Release
Milam County District Attorney’s Office
BRIAN PRICE District & County Attorney Milam County, Texas
Our office has received several inquires about the shooting that took place in Rockdale on April 17, 2026. While we are limited in what we can say about a pending case, we can offer the following information:
Last week, our office filed a motion to revoke the bail of Raymond McBride, Jr., who has been arrested in connection with the shooting that took place at Boogie’s Bar and Grill. That motion was based on the new constitutional sections that were passed by the voters in 2025. Those sections, particularly Article I, section 11d, allow the State to file to revoke a person’s bail in certain violent offense if the State can demonstrate that the granting of bail is insufficient to reasonably ensure the safety of the community and law enforcement.
That motion was heard yesterday in District Judge John Youngblood’s courtroom. District Attorney Brian Price argued the State’s motion. After hearing the evidence presented, the State’s motion was granted. Mr. McBride Jr.’s bail was revoked, and he is currently being held in the Milam County jail without bond
