Texas gas station clerk shot man who broke a jar of salsa: police

A Texas gas station clerk has been arrested after shooting at a customer who broke a jar of salsa, authorities said. 

Breanna Miranda, 22, was taken into custody Friday after the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable’s Office responded to a disturbance call at her workplace in Atascocita, the precinct confirmed in a statement.

After arriving, officers learned that Miranda told a male customer to leave the store. The two argued, at which point the man broke a jar of salsa before storming outside.

Miranda allegedly followed the man outside and retrieved a handgun from her car before firing at him twice, FOX News reported. 

It is unclear if the man was injured in the fight.

Police subsequently booked Miranda into the Harris County Jail on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Her bail is set at $20,000.
