The victim had briefly turned on her high beams to tell an oncoming driver to lower their own, according to the Forth Worth Police Department.

Police believe this may have been the suspect's motive behind shooting at the woman's car just as they were passing each other.

The victim then drove to the 7-Eleven looking for help.

Police said the woman was taken to a local hospital in "good conditions."

No arrests have been made at this time.

An investigation into this incident remains active and ongoing.
