Plano police involved in gas station shootout in Carrollton, one person injured
Jul 22, 2026
Plano police said one person was hurt after a shootout involving police and a group of four people, three juveniles and one adult, that police claim they saw committing a burglary while police were doing surveillance.
Police said it happened at a gas station around 4:23 a.m.
Plano Police said
their burglary unit followed the group of people into the parking lot of a RaceTrac gas station on International Parkway in Carrollton.
When police got out of their vehicle, they said the suspect started shooting at the officers who then returned fire.
Police said they shot one person, who would need surgery. It’s unclear what their status is at this time or who was shot.
Police said no officers were hurt. Another person was hospitalized with non-shooting injuries and is expected to survive. Two other people were arrested, and the investigation continues. Plano Police, Internal Affairs, and Carrollton Police are all part of the investigation. Police did not identify any of the suspects.
It’s unclear how many officers were involved or fired their weapons. Police said the people involved “were known suspects that they were following and conducting surveillance on.” The officers involved are on leave, which is standard.
Jerry Minton, Plano PD PIO, believes this is an isolated incident.
“There are no known suspects involved in this situation that are still at large,” Minton said.
