Houston police are searching for two suspects after a 40-year-old man was found shot to death inside his taco truck late Thursday night.
The victim’s family discovered his body at the truck on Dyna Drive, between Airline Drive and the North Freeway, after they were unable to reach him. Police say the man had been closing up for the night when he was shot multiple times.
The shooting happened around 11:30 p.m. According to investigators, there is still little information about what led up to the attack. The only suspect description so far is two men wearing ski masks who were seen driving away in a white sedan.
Detectives say there is currently no evidence suggesting the motive was a robbery.
Officers have recovered some surveillance video from the area and are working to obtain more.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Houston police or Crime Stoppers.
