Investigators believe the shooting happened as both vehicles were driving but are unsure what exactly led to it.
HPD said there is a possibility it was road rage incident, but it appears both vehicles came out of an apartment complex, so it’s possible something else could have sparked the shooting.
Authorities said they only have a vague description of the suspect’s car, which is a blue sedan.
