HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Court documents obtained by ABC13 are revealing new details in the shooting death of 17-year-old Irwan Paez, who was shot and killed Thursday, Feb. 27, at a McDonald's drive-through in Aldine.

Court documents say 19-year-old Jose De Jimenez Reyes and 23-year-old Jesus Agular are charged with felonies for tampering with evidence.

Both are accused of dumping a red truck involved in the shooting. In the video, the red truck is seen parked in the McDonald's drive-through. When Paez approaches the car, a back door swings open, and Paez is shot. The red truck is then seen speeding away, running over Paez.

Reyes is also accused of removing items from the car and bending back the front license plate so it couldn't be read.
