This morning a man was shot in a carjacking in Austin:

Austin police arrived at the 400 block of FM 1327 after a call came into the Austin Police Department at 6:11 a.m. Tuesday.

Police said they immediately discovered a Red Wing Shoes delivery truck stopped on the SH 45 access road with a wounded man standing in front of it.

The man had been shot in the upper right area of his chest, reportedly by one of two people involved in the carjacking.

They don’t know what the deal was. If there was motive, something in the truck of value, or just what. Investigation continues.

One thing to note about carjackings. If it happens, one of the best defenses you have is under your right foot. Hit that accelerator pedal and GTFOOT.

Note as well, there were two scumbags involved.
