A terrifying event occurred in the state of Texas (United States), involving two vehicles, a firearm and a two-year-old child. An alleged traffic dispute led to a serious altercation, in which two of the occupants of one of the cars pulled out a gun and shot at the people inside the other vehicle.

According to local media reports, those arrested are Nazly Ortiz and Benjamin Greene, now charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and assault respectively. Apparently, it all originated when a man and his two-year-old nephew were driving on northbound I-45 in northern Harris County. At one point, the victim realized that another car was chasing them, and moments later, the terrible scene that is now circulating on social networks took place.

The couple's coldness when shooting at the car with the baby

In the video, you can see how two vehicles are stopped on the side of the road. Greene then pulls out a gun and shoots inside the car, in the back of which was the two-year-old child. In view of the seriousness of the situation, the other vehicle quickly flees, but is shot a second time by Ortiz. After that, the detainees put away their weapons and pick up the shells before fleeing.

Fortunately, there were no fatalities. The first bullet hit the man and his head, but did not require surgery. On the other hand, the second bullet hit the window of a nearby car dealership, so neither of the two bullets hit the baby, who suffered minor injuries due to broken glass.

The scene has gone viral on social networks and has sparked numerous comments, most of them shocked by the couple's coldness in using a firearm against a vehicle in which they knew there was a baby.
