The Harris County Sheriff's Office is searching for three suspects in a carjacking Saturday night that left a 47-year-old man dead about 16 miles north of downtown Houston.

Pedro Aguilar, his wife and their 10-year-old daughter were returning home to their apartment when a sedan pulled up and two men held Aguilar at gunpoint while he was in the driver's seat, KHOU-TV reported. His wife and daughter were outside the car.

The men told Aguilar to get out of the car and hit him with a gun because he was taking too long, according to the Houston station. The carjackers got in but couldn't drive a manual transmission, so one of them shot Aguilar in the chest in front of his family, KHOU reported.

The suspects, who haven't been identified, fled in their white or silver sedan.

Anyone with information can call the Harris County Sheriff's Office at 713-274-9100.
