According to Dallas Police, one man was fatally shot and another injured in a shooting near Pleasant Grove early Sunday morning.

Around 4:30 a.m., officers arrived at the 3700 block of McNeil Street, near Military Parkway and Buckner Boulevard. Two men were located in the breezeway of an apartment complex suffering from gunshot wounds.

Paramedics transported one man to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The second victim, 30-year-old Elmer Adam Carrera, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities suspect a group of men were arguing when Carrera charged toward two of them with a knife and baton. Dallas police suspect one of the males discharged his revolver, injuring the other man and striking Carrera.

The injured male was arrested on an unrelated assault charge, according to police, and the shooting case is set to be reviewed by the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office.
