HOUSTON — Emiliano Garcia, 40 and his young son were on the North Loop West last February when another driver opened fire on their vehicle, injuring both of them.
At the time, police had only a vague description of the gunman. Months later, their investigation led them to 22-year-old Tyric Davis.
Two counts of aggravated assault were filed against Davis on Aug. 6, but police said he's still on the loose.
The shooting happened on the afternoon of Feb. 10 near 300 North Loop West.
Police said Davis refused to let Garcia's vehicle pass, then slowed down and slammed on his brakes before firing several shots into their vehicle.
Garcia and his 10-year-old son were struck by bullets. After colliding with the suspect's vehicle, Garcia kept going and managed to drive to a nearby hospital, police said.
The gunman tried to keep going but his vehicle broke down. He ran away on foot heading northbound on North Main Street.
Anyone with information in this case or the whereabouts of Tyric Davis is urged to contact the HPD Major Assaults & Family Violence Division at (713) 308-8800 or Crime Stopper s at (713) 222-TIPS.
