  • 8 years ago
Police in Houston killed a gunman on Sunday in a chaotic shootout that left one other person dead, six wounded - including two officers - and set off a fire at a nearby gas station when bullets struck a gas pump, authorities said.
Police said they got their first call about the shooting at 10:15 a.m. local time.
The deceased victim, described as a man in his 50s, had just driven in to the auto shop.
Within a minute or two, authorities said, the gunman came in and started shooting.
Others in the shop ran out to take cover nearby and call for help.
Neither the gunman nor the victims have been publicly identified, and police said they had no information on a possible motive.
