Metro Police are trying to identify a trio they say are linked to a shooting that paralyzed a man last month outside a southeast valley convenience store.
The shooting erupted about 10:45 p.m. Aug. 29 in the 5000 block of East Tropicana Avenue, near Nellis Boulevard, police said.
The victim was in the parking lot when a red Toyota Camry with tinted windows pulled up, a man got out and began arguing with the victim, police said.
A fistfight broke out, and as the men fought, a woman in the car got a gun and opened fire, police said.

“The male appeared to have an electronic monitor on his left ankle,” police said. The passenger is a black woman in her 20s, police said.
