All he was trying to do was flag down help; instead, the man was shot in the hand early Wednesday morning in Fort Worth, authorities said.
The unidentified man pulled onto the westbound shoulder of Interstate 20 after his vehicle became disabled at around 2:30 a.m. Police said another motorist stopped, seemingly to help. Instead, the second driver exited his vehicle, allegedly shot the victim’s fingertip before fleeing.
The victim was treated at a local hospital and released; police were still searching for the alleged shooter Thursday afternoon.
