HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) -- Residents of the Lincoln Green Estates neighborhood say late-night parking lot takeovers at a Food Town along the North Beltway have turned their streets into a frightening place to live, with gunfire striking nearby homes.

Most weeks, starting late Thursday night, residents say they expect to hear dozens of cars gathering in the parking lot just across Greens Bayou.

They say they could live with the crowds and loud music, but the situation has grown increasingly dangerous.
