Houston police are investigating the fatal shooting of one man and the wounding of a man and a woman at 3206 Noble Street about 7:50 p.m. on Thursday (April 27).
The identity of the deceased man, 30, is pending verification by the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences.
HPD Homicide Division Detectives A. Ledford and M. Providence reported:
HPD patrol officers and Houston Fire Department paramedics responded to a shooting at the above address and found one man unresponsive with at least one gunshot wound. Paramedics attempted to provide medical assistance but then pronounced the man deceased. Officers learned one woman, 30 and a man, 23, were also shot at the location. Paramedics transported both victims to area hospitals and they are expected to survive.
A preliminary investigation and evidence from the scene indicated multiple individuals were hanging out in the front yard of a residence at the above address when a four-door, dark-colored sedan stopped in the area. At least three male suspects exited the vehicle, approached the group and fired multiple times. Immediately after the shooting, the suspects ran to the sedan and fled the scene in an unknown direction.
The suspects are described only as three unknown black males.
Anyone with information in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or speak anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
