DALLAS -- Dallas police are searching for the gunman who shot and killed a man overnight Sunday.

Officials said the victim, Jose Manuel Parra, a 24-year-old Mexican national, was shot and killed outside his girlfriend's house on the 3000 block of Chihuahua Street Sunday night. Parra was shot when he walked over to a truck after someone in the vehicle called out his name, police said.

Someone inside the truck opened fire and shot Parra several times, police said.

Parra was rushed to Parkland Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The gunman fled the scene and is currently on the loose. Homicide investigators are hoping to get a detailed description of the gunman from witnesses.

Dallas police have not released a possible motive in the shooting.
