DALLAS — A shooting at a Garland Starbucks led to more gunfire a short time later at a North Dallas hospital.

Police said it all started with an argument between a man and a woman at the coffee shop at Arapaho and Shiloh roads around 7:20 Tuesday evening.

Thanks for posting the links!
I was off today but did get the page out to stay away from Medical City as much as possible due to a shooting but thats all they said.
I wonder what it is about that area.
Remember the shooting a year or two ago at the Three Forest Tower not even a block away from Med City?

I worked at TI for 5 yrs. The area is safe. However, if you go east on Forest lane beyond where TI is it would get rough quickly.

Shoot! You don't even have to go past TI. Ever been to that RaceTrac after midnight? lol
I've never had an incident but it's a rough looking crowd.

What I hate* is that this took place at a Starbucks. After their standing up to the antis I hope this does not make them rethink their policy.

*After the shooting itself of course.

Well, technically it happened in the vehicle in the parking lot.
