The victim was sitting in his car, waiting for food outside a Fort Worth restaurant on Saturday night when he was shot.
Fort Worth Police are hoping witnesses will come forward to help connect the dots on a shooting that left a man dead."The driver got out to go get some food and while he was getting the food all of a sudden someone shot at his passenger that was still sitting in the vehicle. So he came out there. Unfortunately, the passenger had been shot several times and was pronounced deceased on the scene," said Brad Perez, with the Fort Worth Police Department.
Police are stopping short of saying Morgan was targeted, but they do say it's unlikely he was caught in crossfire."It seems like the shots were deliberately into that vehicle, so whether someone drove by or someone that just walked up and shot that will be figured out," said Perez.Police say investigators are talking with the driver who left the vehicle to get food in hopes of piecing together a broader picture of what happened.
