The shooting occurred at 9:44 p.m. on April 15 while a couple was putting gas in their vehicle at the Circle K at 1135 Joe Battle Blvd. by Rojas Drive. The gas station is next to Loop 375 near Interstate 10.

While the couple was parked at the pumps, the driver of another vehicle "became upset and stared at them," Crime Stoppers said in a statement. The driver then parked behind the couple before firing a gun, shooting the back window of the couple's car and wounding a man.

The driver — who was recorded by the store's security cameras — appeared to be in his early 20s and was wearing a black beanie, a red-and-black tie-dye T-shirt with a white logo on the back, black sweatpants and white sneakers. A description of the shooter's vehicle was not disclosed.
