The Irving Police Department gave the name of the suspect as Bernardo Mendoza Argueta, 37.

"When officers arrived on the scene, they found two people with gunshot wounds.  Both individuals were pronounced deceased at the scene by Irving Fire Department medics," a fire department spokesman told Fox News Digital.

"The suspect fled before the arrival of the officers," the spokesman continued, before adding that everything points to the fact that it was not a random event.

As a preventative measure, the authorities alerted towns adjacent to Irving, advising everyone to travel with caution and to be attentive to a silver Honda vehicle model 1997 with the following Texas license: GVH6205.
