Fort Worth police are searching for a man accused of shooting a security guard after being confronted in a parking garage near the Crescent Hotel on Camp Bowie Boulevard.<\/p>\n
Surveillance video recorded around 2:45 a.m. shows a man walking through the parking garage. Police said he was trying to open car doors when a security guard approached him and told him to leave.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was told, ‘ You need to leave, you need to leave the premises,\u201d Officer Daniel Segura with the Fort Worth Police Department said.<\/p>\n
Police said the man agreed and began walking out of the garage. As he was leaving through the east entrance, investigators said he pulled out a handgun and began shooting at security guards.<\/p>\n
One guard was struck in the arm.<\/p>\n
Police said the suspect then ran from the garage and remains at large.<\/p>\n
The Crescent Hotel, where police responded, praised its security team in a statement, saying, \u201cWe are enormously proud of how our security team handled this situation.\u201d<\/p>\n
The hotel said the wounded guard \u201cis on the way to a full and speedy recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n
Police said they want to identify and arrest the suspect as soon as possible because of the danger they believe he poses.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis actions by pulling a gun, not only displaying it, pointed it, but actually he shot and hit someone, that is a very dangerous [person] that we don\u2019t want to be out in the street,\u201d Segura said.<\/p>\n
A witness described the suspect as a \u201cskinny Hispanic male\u201d with \u201cloopy or long hair,\u201d according to police.<\/p>\n
Investigators believe someone knows who the suspect is and are asking that person to come forward.<\/p>\n
