    These guys shot a friend of mine in Houston trying to jack his car. The video is released recently by the Houston PD. The person they shot is a known figure in Houston by the Turkish community and he is recovering atm. I thought I'd post it here since he gets out of a Tundra.

    2nd gen tundra crewmax
    Cell phone mount hangs in mid windshield
    Small sticker on windshield bottom driver side

    I know this might be a low shot but I thought I'd post it here. There is also a 5k reward for any info leading to the arrest of these attackers. The attacker has probably also shot himself since he keeps falling down while trying to escape.

    thank you for looking

    Update: I tried using AI to enhance the original video above. Kind of made it better but it is not magic

    Yea it is random they tried to take his Mercedes outside of his restaurant. He was attacked as he was getting into his car at the end of his work. He fought back and thats when he was shot. Lots of people are calling the hospital for him and the hospital now straight up refuses to give any info due to the volume of the calls. He went under a long surgery yesterday and this morning he woke up then facetimed with his family. Might have couple of more surgeries that are thankfully not life threatening. Thank you

    Sorry to hear this, fingers crossed your friend pulls through just fine.

    Have you posted this on the local Houston Tundra Facebook groups?
    If they let you, you might get even more local eyes on this

    Thank you all for your replies. I would greatly appreciate it if you can help spread the word. You never know... 5k reward might entice some people. I inserted a new link to the original post for the edits I made to the original video. I tried to make the original video more clear.

    I'm praying for your friend.
    It appears that this happened sometime in 2018 by the title on the 1st video. Have the police made any progress on this case?
