Suresh Sam Shah, a 46-year-old Indian immigrant, was shot and killed on November 26, 2018, while closing his liquor store, Liquor City, in Lewisville, Texas. The shooting happened about 10:00 p.m. as Shah was complying with a robbery demand; he was shot in the chest and later died at a hospital. Surveillance footage captured a tall, slender man in a hoodie near Shah’s vehicle.

The Lewisville Police Department treated the case as a robbery gone wrong and released grainy surveillance images while urging anyone with information to contact them. Shah’s widow, Bina Shah, a psychologist, took over the store to support their two daughters and keep the family business running. The community held a candlelight vigil and offered support to the family.

No arrest has been reported and the suspect remains at large. If anyone has information about the suspect seen on surveillance that night, please contact the Lewisville Police Department or submit an anonymous tip.
