A 28-year-old man who was found shot to death next to his car outside a convenience store in northwest Harris County over the weekend has been identified as Bryson Walton.
According to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, the shooting happened in the 14100 block of SH-249 at about 6 p.m.
Authorities said an unknown man walked up to a car that was parked outside of Primos Food Store, fired multiple shots at Bryson Walton sitting inside, and fled the scene.
Deputies said the victim, believed to be in his mid-20s, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigators haven’t provided a description of the suspect or a motive for the shooting.
Although details are limited, Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said it’s possible the victim was followed after coming out of the store, but investigators are working to learn what led up to the shooting.
Witnesses told deputies that Walton was arguing with another man in front of the store when the man fired at Walton multiple times as he returned to his vehicle.
The manhunt is still underway for Bryson Walton’s killer.
