Houston,Car Repair Shop,Owner

A customer claims he was attacked by the owner of a car repair shop in Houston. The repairs were completed, but the owner demanded additional payment. The customer alleges that the owner pointed a gun at him.

One Houston car repair shop owner has been arrested and now sued after a customer claimed he was attacked inside the business. Earl Morris, a customer who went to retrieve his repaired vehicle, alleges he was assaulted by the owner, Al Kassar. Morris tells FOX 26 that on Jan. 31, following a morning car accident, his vehicle was towed to Enzo Car Care for repairs.

Morris says by the afternoon, the repairs were completed, with the understanding that the costs would be covered by his insurance policy. When returning to collect his vehicle later that day, Morris claims Kassar became confrontational and demanded additional payment. 'He eventually told me if you want the keys, just come and get them,' said Morris. 'I walked around the corner to look for where my keys were, and when I looked back over, he was pointing the gun directly in my cheek.
