SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police are searching for two men accused of shooting at witnesses who were about to report an alleged robbery.

The victims pulled into the gas station and saw two masked men walk inside the store. The victims believed the men were about to rob the store, so the victims backed up and started to call the police, the Crime Stoppers report states.

The men saw the witnesses drive off, so they got into a black Mercedes Benz car and followed them.
