One struck the man riding in the front seat.Baytown Police Lt. Eric Freed said, "If you go with your gut reaction to 'get someone back' on the road, you are really rolling the dice. You just don't know."Latravia McCarter is a friend of the man who was shot. "For someone to shoot someone just over that, it doesn't make any sense."The BMW was last seen traveling west on Baker Road toward Spur 330.
