MISSOURI CITY — Police hope two convenience store customers who left the business just minutes before the clerk was slain might be able to provide some information about the case, authorities said today.
A surveillance camera showed customers at the store's counter just a few moments before a masked man walked in and shot Ashok Bhattarai,21, about 10 p.m. Sunday.
Bhattarai was dead at the scene at the 1st Food Stop at 2563 Cartwright, police said.
The camera showed a customer at the counter who walks out of the store in the same general direction from where the robber approaches.
"He might have seen the suspect," said Missouri City detective Russell Terry. "We would really like to speak to him because he might have possible information."
The camera also captured another customer getting into a car and leaving before the gunman entered the store.
The surveillance video shows the gunman throw open the front door of the store and aim a rifle at Bhattarai. After shooting the clerk he walks behind the counter and empties the safe of about $5,000.
Terry said the gunman is a young black male who was wearing black shorts, a black shirt, black shoes, a black hat and a red bandana across his face.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Missouri City Police Department at 281-403-8700 or Fort Bend Crime Stoppers at 281-342-8477
