Two men were injured Wednesday afternoon in a Cypress, Texas, Kroger during an exchange of gunfire that law enforcement believes resulted from a domestic disturbance.

ABC News reported the incident occurred around 2:50 p.m.

One of the men, who is “believed to be the shooter,”  was shot in the neck, KHOU noted. He was taken to a hospital, then into custody by law enforcement.

The second man was taken to the hospital in critical condition.

Kroger released a statement, published by ABC 13, which said:

We are deeply saddened by the incident that occurred at our Fairfield Marketplace Kroger store located at 20355 Cypresswood Drive, Cypress, TX 77433.

We are cooperating with local law enforcement, who have secured the store and parking lot. The store will remain closed while the police investigation continues, and we have initiated counseling services for our associates.

Law enforcement has not yet said whether the shooting victim used his own gun to defend himself or whether he shot the suspect with the suspect’s own weapon.
