One man was killed and another is fighting for his life after being shot in a possible road rage incident, KSAT 12 News reported.

Friends of the victims said that three people left a tattoo parlor at about 2:30 a.m. Sunday.

Shortly afterward, the two victims were shot multiple times.

Samuel Hitchcock, 21, died Sunday morning, according to police.

Daniel Peñ,a 18, was also injured and was in critical condition Sunday.

According to police, Hitchcock and Peña, along with an unidentified person, were on their way to someone's house when a truck sideswiped their vehicle near Callaghan Road.

Police said Hitchcock followed the truck in order to get a license plate.

Eventually, the truck pulled over in the 200 block of Early Train Drive, where a man got out, pulled a gun and started shooting, according to a witness.

A friend who worked at the tattoo parlor said Hitchcock was a talented artist who minded his own business and stayed out of trouble.

Police were still searching for the shooter Sunday night.
