Shooter fired on man in Burleson Whataburger lot in road rage case, police say
Motivated by road rage, a man shot another man in the torso in the parking lot of a Whataburger restaurant in Burleson on Sunday evening, police said.
After feuding while driving, the men stopped at the restaurant. The shooting occurred about 6 p.m. in the 500 block of Wilshire Boulevard, said Collin Gregory, a Burleson Police Department spokesperson.
The wounded man was taken to a hospital and was released on Monday, Gregory said.
From an adjacent parking lot, the shooter called police to describe his account.
Employees at the Whataburger also called police after the injured man walked inside the restaurant to ask for help.
The Johnson County Criminal District Attorney’s Office will determine whether to charge the shooter, whom police have not arrested.
