ODESSA -- A fight turns fiery in Odessa.
Police say two men were arguing in an alley near 42nd and Golder a little after 5 PM Tuesday -- after one accused the other of stealing wine from a store.
At some point, one of the men threw rocks at the other man. Then, police say the same man picked up a flare gun and fired it at the victim.
The victim ended up with burns and a black eye, and police say he also lost a tooth. He didn't end up going to the hospital.
Now, police are looking for the suspect. Police say he's 21 years old, and he's wanted on aggravated assault charges.
