San Antonio police are searching for two vehicles Friday that they said were involved in a drive-by shooting outside an east-side tattoo studio Thursday night.

Three people were shot. None sustained serious injuries.

Police reported that two vehicles passed by the Eternal Marx Tattoo Studio, which also has a recording studio inside, at about 10:30 p.m. Thursday.

Witnesses claimed the vehicles took two passes along the 1500 block of South Hackberry. Someone inside one of the vehicles then opened fire.

Investigators said Ruben Ramirez and David Bell  were grazed  by the gunfire. Conception Gomez, the manager of the tattoo parlor, was grazed in the right leg. She was taken to the Baptist Hospital downtown for treatment.

The business sustained bullet hole damage throughout the building and several vehicles were also hit by the gunfire.

The witnesses told police that three Hispanic males in a maroon or dark red vehicle were responsible for the shootings.

Police said they have not determined a possible motive in the shootings. The suspects face multiple counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
