It is assumed that the man on Wednesday fatally shot three people in two separate places in the Houston area before killing himself, AP said he quoted the authorities. Police are still investigating the motif of shooting.
“The first signs are that it is all related,” said the police department of Houston Larry Crowson.
The first shooting occurred around 13:00 in the suburbs in Houston Sugar Land, where the driver launched fire on another vehicle and hit the driver who later died in the hospital, according to the spokesman of the Municipal Police Alicia Alaniz. The police are investigating whether the road rage was a factor.
About 30 minutes later, the police responded to shooting in a mechanical shop about seven miles southeast of the first incident. The shooter reportedly shot a mechanic and witness who filmed him when he left the scene.
The description of the shooter and his vehicles corresponded to the account of sugar shooting, Crowson said.
The authorities later found out that the dead shooter in his vehicle was about four miles from the second scene, and the police believe he has taken his own life.
The identities of the victims and the shooter were not released.
