Lewisville Police Release Surveillance Video In Murder Of Clerk
LEWISVILLE (CBSDFW.COM) - He killed a newlywed and is still on the loose, and now Lewisville police have released new information with the hope of identifying him.
Detectives believe the suspect who murdered 51-year-old Ashraf Lakhani at a Valero gas station on East Corporate Drive was wearing a reversible Adidas hooded jacket -- like the one seen below.
They released images of a jacket similar to the one worn by the gunman, showing one side colored navy blue with white stripes, and the other side grey with a large Adidas logo.
Lakhani was shot and killed just after midnight on February 15. Police said two male suspects walked into the Valero demanding money, and one of them started shooting.
Lewisville police also released a sketch of one of the suspects, three days after the shooting.
Now detectives have released surveillance video with accompanying audio in hopes that someone will recognize the suspect's voice from the demands he made of Lakhani on the night she was robbed and killed.
The entire encounter lasts about 30 seconds and the suspect's voice is heard clearly at two different times.
As soon as he and another man entered the store the gunman is heard saying " Give me everything… give me every (expletive) thing if you reach…"
Then as he continues to rummage for the money and after shooting the victim he is heard saying , "Give me everything. Where's everything else? (inaudible) Where's all the money? Where?"
The scene of Lakhani's murder is only a few feet from where Sam Shah was robbed and killed in November of 2018 while closing his liquor store.
Lewisville police are asking that anyone with information about the robbery and shooting, or who has information about the suspect, to call their tip line at (972) 219-TIPS (8477).
There are a number of rewards being offered for information in the case, including $10,000 from Oak Farms Dairy if the suspects are arrested and indicted.
