New video sheds light on deadly shooting inside North Austin H-E-B
AUSTIN, Texas – A new video provided to FOX 7 Austin is shedding some light on a deadly shooting inside an H-E-B in North Austin on Friday.
In the video, a security guard can be seen in the background and a person is on the ground. Someone is heard on camera saying “He just [expletive] killed him” and another person is heard saying, “they shot him like seven times, bro.”
