Questions surround the death of a sixty-year-old man who was fatally shot while sitting in a parked car in Texas.
According to reports, police said Patrick Morgan and another person we’re getting food from Lulu’s Lounge just before his death. Morgan stayed in the car while the other person retrieved the food.
“While he was getting food, someone or some people shot and killed the passenger still sitting inside that vehicle. When the driver came back to the vehicle, there were gunshots through the window, and the passenger there was dead," Officer Bradley Perez, spokesperson for the Fort Worth Police Department, said.
Morgan‘s wife said her husband died while waiting for his favorite food, catfish. She described her late husband as a "gentle husband, father, son, neighbor, coworker, brother and friend that never caused or participated in confusion or drama."
Donald Thomas, owner of Lulu's Lounge, clarified that the incident did not occur at his business. Police said the shooting unfolded at the intersection of Miller Avenue and Richardson Street.
“It did not happen at Lulu’s Lounge. Not on the parking lot, not inside the building," he said.
No arrest have been made in the shooting.
“Right now, we still don’t know why that happened. We don’t know if it was a targeted hit or just a random drive-by or walk-by; we're not certain yet," Perez said.
“It’s too early to tell, as far as what was the MO, the motive behind this, why did this occur. Did they know each other, did they not?”
