Police say at 9:30am Friday at the pre-owned car sales office there was a confrontation between a manager and a salesman and it ended in a shooting. According to officers, the 30-year-old manager was shot in the neck.
He was taken to the trauma center at Memorial Hermann Hospital where he remains in serious condition, but he's said to be improving.
The salesman, identified as Keith Edward Grimmett, 49, fled the scene in a car.
Employees who witnessed the whole thing left the dealership in a state of shock after being interviewed by police.
Several hours later, police left the dealership in a hurry. We're told Grimmett made a call to turn himself in and followed through.
The reason behind the confrontation between manager and employee has not been given. But Friday afternoon a man in the market for a car decided to postpone his visit.
Customer William Emmons said, "So quick, I haven't thought much about it, but it's shocking. It's sad."
Grimmett is in police custody. Police say a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon is pending against him.
