12/23 Houston, TX Former Employee Shoots Supervisors at Oil Change Shop

Ritchie Arthur Brown, 22, arrived at Universal Oil & Lube around noon and began to argue over his recent termination with his former supervisor and son. He then shot the two. Workers at the automotive shop said the alleged shooter worked at the place for a few months, but wasn't a good fit. Brown then fled home and held off police till late in the evening. After several attempts with negotiation and the use of tear gas, Brown came out, shooting at the officers. He was then killed by responding fire.
