Man shot and killed by Missouri City police at convenience store off Highway 6

MISSOURI CITY, Texas (KTRK) -- A man was shot and killed by police after an exchange of gunfire in Missouri City.

When officers arrived, police reportedly tried to speak to the suspect, but he pulled a gun out of his vehicle and fired shots at the officers. That's what triggered the exchange of gunfire, police said.

No one else was injured in the exchange of gunfire, police said.
