Officials say that around 12:30 a.m. the victim and his girlfriend were standing in line behind the shooter, waiting to enter the haunted house. The shooter, believed to be Terrelle, reportedly would not move and accused the victim of attempting to cut in line ahead of him.
After the victim and Terrelle exchanged words, the victim told his girlfriend that he was going to his vehicle, police say. The suspected shooter also walked to the parking lot, separately from the victim.
Authorities say witnesses reported hearing shots fired and saw a blue sedan quickly flee the scene.

Terrelle is described as standing about 6 feet, 5 inches tall, weighing about 190 pounds and has a medium complexion. He was seen wearing an orange hooded sweatshirt and jeans at the scene. Authorities believe Terrelle is armed and dangerous.
