Parking lot attendant shot in the leg during argument at apartment complex near the rodeo, Houston Police Department says

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Police say a parking lot attendant was shot near the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on Tuesday evening.

The shooting, which happened in the 8400 block of Hearth Drive, took place around 9 p.m., according to police.

A lieutenant with the Houston Police Department told ABC13 that the incident took place at an apartment complex where people were paying to park.

Investigators believe three people in a Cadillac Escalade — a man and two women — got into an argument with the attendant over whether or not they were allowed to park in a particular place.

HPD says the attendant was shot in the leg by the man before the three individuals in the SUV left the scene.

That attendant is expected to survive his injuries.

Anyone with information on this investigation can call the Houston Police Department at 713-308-8800 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS. (8477)
