Attorney shot, killed after fight with angry customer at McDonald's in Texas, reports say

A lawyer was fatally shot in a Houston McDonald's over the weekend after getting into a "verbal disagreement" with a customer, multiple reports said.

Jeffrey Limmer, 46, was pronounced dead after being shot several times on Saturday, the Houston Chronicle and ABC 13 reported.

Here's what we know.

Alleged shooter was angry about McDonald's order

Before the gunfire, the alleged shooter was angry with the McDonald's employees over his order and was demanding a refund, ABC 13 reported, citing detectives. Limmer tried to de-escalate the situation, but his attempt led to the alleged shooter focusing on him.

The two began fighting, and Limmer pushed the alleged shooter to the ground, according to the Houston-based TV station. The angry customer then went to his car, got a gun and allegedly shot Limmer.

McDonald's shooting victim was 'a good Samaritan'

Jennifer Thomas, Limmer's sister, told ABC 13 that her parents were at their granddaughter's graduation when they got the news of their son's death.

"He loved fiercely his family and friends," Thomas told the outlet. "Always laughing, making jokes, and just loving life."

Limmer lived near the McDonald's where he was killed, and went frequently, according to Thomas.

"Knowing Jeff, he's the one who always says, 'Calm down. It's not that big of a deal,' and divert the situation," Thomas explained to ABC 13. "He's always wanted to fight for the little guy and do the right thing."

Limmer worked as an associate in Lewis Brisbois' Houston office, according to the law firm's website.

Thomas called her brother a "good Samaritan" who was "trying to do the right thing (by) not letting those employees at McDonald's go through that."

Identity of suspect in Houston McDonald's shooting remains unknown

On Saturday, Houston police officers responded to shots being fired at a McDonald's off the Katy Freeway and found a male unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds, the department said in a news release.

The alleged shooter fled the crime scene in an early 2000s blue Ford pickup truck, police said.

As of Thursday morning, the suspect's identity had not been released to the public. It is unclear if law enforcement has information on the alleged shooter's whereabouts.

The Houston Police Department asks that anyone with information in this case contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or speak anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
