Man shot with shotgun in east Fort Worth in possible drug deal gone bad, police say
A man was shot in the groin area, with a shotgun, in his east Fort Worth garage late Thursday night during a possible drug deal gone bad, police said.
The man was taken to a hospital in stable condition.
He indicated there were three male suspects, all of whom were at large as of Friday morning, police said.
Units were dispatched to a shooting call in the 2600 block of Avenue G around midnight, according to a police call log. The caller’s husband was reportedly shot in the garage.
Officers confirmed the man was shot in the groin area. They began investigating the incident as a possible drug deal gone bad, police said, because the victim had a large bag of weed in the garage.
Robbery detectives and gun violence detectives are investigating the shooting, police said.
