A suspect was arrested after police said multiple people were shot outside an East Austin BBQ restaurant on Sunday night.
The backstory:
Police said calls came in around 8:30 p.m. on April 26 about a shooting outside Sam's BBQ on E. 12th Street, near Poquito Street.
A preliminary investigation states that two men were involved in a fight that escalated into a shooting.
In the video, a man in black can be seen punching a man wearing a white T-shirt. Once the punching stops, the man in white reaches into his waistband, appearing to grab a weapon. Another man wearing a flannel jacket then joins alongside him, also reaching for his waistband and producing a weapon. Those two then approach the man in black.
Video of shooting outside East Austin BBQ restaurant
VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED: Two people were injured in a shooting Sunday night outside an East Austin BBQ restaurant. A FOX 7 Austin viewer provided this video of the shooting and the chaos that followed.
When slowed down, the video appears to show that the man in black uses his own gun to fire the first shots. The man in flannel then seems to respond with his own wave of gunfire, keeping his sights set on the man in black as he runs down the street.
The crowd began to flee in all directions to avoid the line of fire. Moments later, another exchange of gunfire can be heard. The man in white who was initially getting punched then reappears in the video and begins yelling, but it's unclear exactly what he is saying.
