JACINTO CITY, Texas - A man accidentally shot and killed himself during an altercation with his girlfriend Wednesday night, according to Jacinto City Police.

"Right at first, all we could hear was a lot of wind and the sound of rain. Then, all of a sudden, that changed and came a loud roaring sound -- much like I've heard people describe tornadoes before," Allen Jamail said.

The fire broke out just before 4am at the While Elephant Flea Market along the East Freeway near Carlang.
