A man was killed and his young son wounded Sunday night when someone opened fire on them after they left their South Dallas home.

Witnesses said Cliffton Norton, 33, and his 8-year-old son left their home in the 4600 block of Wahoo Street, near the Juanita Craft Recreation Center, around 11 p.m.

Shortly after they left, neighbors heard gunshots and then saw Norton drive back to the house and stumble out of the car.

He was pronounced dead shortly after police arrived.

His 8-year-old son also was struck and was taken to Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas with injuries that weren't life-threatening, police said. The boy's name was not released.

Dallas police ask that anybody with information about the shooting contact Detective Christopher Walton at 214-671-3632 or christopher.walton@dallascityhall.com.
