The alleged murderer of a Texas real estate agent has been refused bail following claims he shot her and another individual after one of them briefly made contact with his Mercedes car.

According to Fox News affiliate, KDFW-TV, 28-year-old Ashlee Long was leaving a local bar in Downtown Dallas on April 5 with a group of friends.

According to Dallas police, a member of Long’s group “extended a hand and lightly touched the passenger side of a passing Mercedes as they were crossing the street.”

Investigators said that’s when 34-year-old Kendrick Finch got out of the passenger side with a gun and opened fire.

Members of Long and Finch’s families were in attendance.

Video of the shooting was shown during the hearing, capturing the moment the real estate agent was shot.

Henry Long, the father of the victim, released a statement mourning the death of his daughter and calling for Finch to stay in jail.

“Ashlee’s life mattered. And so does justice,” Long wrote on Facebook. “Kendrick Finch must remain behind bars — permanently.

“He made the choice to kill. He should not be given the opportunity to walk free and make that choice again.”

Long said the pain of losing a child is “indescribable.”

“Losing her in this manner — through a stranger’s act of gun violence — is a tragedy no family should face,” he expressed. “Kendrick Finch chose to end her life. His actions not only closed her future but also devastated the lives of those who cherished her.”
