6th Street Shooting Suspect Sought By Police

AUSTIN, TX — Police on Tuesday released grainy surveillance camera images of a New Year's Day shooting at a popular 6th Street bar that left two people hurt.

The incident occurred Jan. 1 at 1:15 a.m. at the Terminal 6 bar, 302 E. 6th St. Responding to the scene, police found a large group of people fleeing from the establishment before quickly securing the building. The shooting victims, both 19 years old, sustained non-life-threatening injuries, according to police.

While the still images extracted from a surveillance camera lack focus, police hope they will suffice in helping identify the suspect. He is described as an African American standing five feet, seven inches tall weighing between 160 to 180 pounds, with long dreadlocks below the shoulder. The man was last seen wearing a multi-colored, long-sleeved top and dark pants.
