Look, Texans seem to inherently know a thing or two about good barbecue, and no doubt some of are incredibly particular about it.

Unfortunately, 36-year-old Houston man Andre Thomas appears to be one of those gentleman, and he took it in a direction many would consider shocking.


Last month, he visited a Dickey's Barbecue Pit for takeout when upon leaving, realized the restaurant shorted him on some barbecue sauce.

Thomas called to complain, but wasn't happy with how the workers were trying to resolve the issue, so he went BACK to the restaurant and THREATENED the employees, saying he was going to shoot the place up, police said.

And he did just that. He waited in his car until closing time, and as employees were leaving, fired shots into their cars. One worker suffered a broken arm in the incident, but it appears they'll be okay and nobody else suffered any injuries.

According to Click 2 Houston, Thomas was arrested, and is facing two charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and burglary of habitation.

He was also a felon who was out on bond, so he'll be held in jail at least until his next hearing in April.
