According to police, the victim and McClarin knew each other, and an argument between the two initiated the gunfire.
The victim was transported to John Peter Smith Hospital where he is in critical condition with life-threatening injuries. Police did not release the victim's identity.
McClarin was booked into the Fort Worth Jail and faces charges of aggravated assault causing serious boldly harm and evading arrest. He is being held on a $50,000 bond. It's unclear whether he has legal representation.
