HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Houston police are searching for the suspect who shot and killed a woman in a bank parking lot in southeast Houston.



The shooting happened Sunday at about 12:44 a.m. at a Chase bank on Woodridge in the Gulfgate area. Investigators said an officer working an extra job nearby heard a gunshot and found the victim, a 49-year-old woman, on the ground as the man ran away.



Police believe the woman, identified as Mary Jane Gonzales, may have been shot in the head during a robbery.



So far, no arrests have been made in the shooting and police are working on getting surveillance video.



Officers are also urging people to never go to a bank at night alone.
