A gym member angry that a woman would not go out with him shot dead her fitness worker boyfriend and left her badly injured, police said.
Margaret McCombs, 21, who is in a critical condition, worked at the Planet Fitness gym in San Antonio, Texas, with her boyfriend Juan Escamilla, 31.
The suspect, Yu Masaki, 27, who had a gun in his waistband, was tracked down at his home and arrested after a scuffle with officers, police said.
He approached them when they were near the car, killed the male and then chased the female and shot her multiple times.
Mr Escamilla was fatally shot in his upper torso as his girlfriend Miss McCombs ran across the perking lot.
Police found Masaki at his apartment complex and arrested him when they spotted him carrying a TV out of his home.
He got into a short struggle with two officers after he refused to put up his hands when requested, but they managed to take him into custody, authorities said.
Police got control of the situation when an officer kicked Masaki to the ground.
He was only charged with aggravated assault on a police officer - while authorities probe whether he was indeed the gunman.
