Man accused of fatally shooting 2 teen daughters inside taxi claims he fled car before they were killed.

A man accused of fatally shooting his two teenage daughters in a taxi in the Dallas area in 2008 told jurors in his capital murder trial on Monday that he fled the vehicle before they were killed because he thought someone wanted to kill him. A family member has said the slayings were "honor killings" carried out by the teens' father Yaser Said. "Definitely not, I did not kill my daughters," said Said, whose testimony in Arabic was translated to English. After closing arguments, jurors began deliberating the case on Tuesday. https://www.tsbrenterprises.co/all-pages
