Only ABC13 spoke with a nurse who just happened to be in the right place at the right time to help give emergency first aid to the victim.

The shooting reportedly happened several streets away, but the victim managed to drive to Morgan Park Lane. That's where he ended up in the driveway of the one person qualified to treat his gunshot wounds.
"A blue SUV drove down the street very fast and I went to the edge of the street to ask him to please slow down," nurse Carlesha Roberts told ABC13.
Surveillance video from Roberts' home shows the SUV going fast down Morgan Park Lane. The street is a cul-de-sac, so he had to go past Roberts' home one more time, and that's when things turned chaotic.
"He stopped me and said, 'Ma'am, I have been shot. Can you help me?'" Roberts recalled.
The answer was "yes" because Roberts is a nurse. She's also a veteran and works at the VA hospital.
"When I looked, I saw blood. I told him, 'Get yourself out of the vehicle and I am going to get something to put a tourniquet on your leg,'" Roberts said.

As she was treating the victim's leg wound, he told her something very alarming.
"That's when he said, 'It just happened around the corner. They might be looking for me.' And so I said, 'Drag yourself into my house. I am going to move your vehicle and hide it,'" Roberts said.
Roberts then put the victim's SUV in her own garage and waited for police and an ambulance.
She heard what the victim told Harris County Pct. 4 deputies about the shooting.
"I heard him tell the cops that it sounded like it was, he said he met them on Instagram and he was selling a cellphone. So, it sounded like it went bad, but it was 6 something in the morning," Roberts said.

She told ABC13 she's now concerned about the violence so close to her home.
"I am really nervous because it happened in our neighborhood. And that was the scariest thing, is that I am here with my daughters. But, I am hoping they figure out who did it," she said.
As for the suspect, Pct. 4 said he is a Black male wearing all black clothing. He reportedly fled on foot.
