Who pulled the trigger at a Colorado Springs 7-Eleven continues to be a mystery. Police are now looking for witnesses to lead them to the culprit.

Twenty-four-year-old Andrew Tuncap was gunned down and 30-year-old Kevin Jones was seriously injured. It happened last Thursday night at Fillmore and Hancock, just east of Nevada.

Police have little to go on right now. They said this murder might be gang-associated, but they aren't for sure at this point. “We're concerned. If this is a gang-related homicide, then there could be retaliation. Anyone can get hurt. We want to avoid that, so we’re seeking the public's help," said Springs Police Detective Rick Gysin.

Police don't have much of a suspect description, except they think the killer or killers are males.

If you have any information about this murder, you can remain anonymous and call Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

i did not know the man who was murdered but my prayers go out to his family. i do know the other victim and he is far from a gang member. the cspd labels anyone with a tattoo a gang member. someone has to know something.

Always in our hearts Gizmo...May you rest in peace looking down on us.. No one deserves this, if whoever did this is reading this: He has kids a family a mother and father...Put yourself in their position,You Can't!

Gizmo..Today is your funeral and so many of us are walking lost with tears streaming down our face. We cannot understand why someone would take you from us..your family, your friends, and your gorgeous kids. Things will not be the same for a long time. You have touched so many people. We know you are now with Andre and Sirena and are in a better place. We will continue to speak your name and let your kids know just how wonderful you were. We know your are watching over us now. We love you Gizmo and you are missed.........

I'm sure there are surveillance tapes, but they are usually focused on the register itself, not out in the parking lot where the shooter (or shooters) were said to be standing. I do think that there must have been lots of witnesses at that time, (especially if a large crowd was there within a couple minutes of the shootings) and somebody had to have seen something! As for Sarah's comment, I live right off of Fillmore, and I know there is always a good flow of traffic until 2-3 in the morning, so I'm sure you are right that even someone passing could have seen something! I hope that whoever did this gets caught soon for the sake of the families involved!
