HOUSTON — A woman crashed into a home Monday afternoon while trying to escape the crossfire of a shootout at a southwest Houston gas station.
According to Houston police, two men met up at the gas station in the 7900 block W Airport Boulevard to engage in a drug deal. At some point, the two men started shooting at each other.
The woman was pumping gas when the two men started shooting. Police said she tried escaping the crossfire by getting into her car and driving away, but shortly after leaving the gas station, she crashed through a fence in a yard and then into a house on Villa Lea Lane.
It's unclear at this time if she was injured or if anyone in the home was injured.
One of the suspects involved in the shootout was taken to a nearby hospital to be treated for their injuries. The other suspect got into an accident while trying to get away. By the time police arrived on the scene, they were gone.
