The 2-year-old child was shot and killed on the scene and was pronounced dead by EMS on arrival.

The father suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was airlifted to Memorial Hermann-Texas Medical Center where his exact condition was unknown. The friend was taken to Houston Northwest Medical Center where he was said to be in stable condition.

Minchew said that the child’s mother was inside the apartment with a one-month-old baby when she heard a loud noise which she “thought were fireworks” going off. When she went downstairs to inspect, she was “accosted” by one of the suspects who asked her for money at gunpoint.

She proceeded to tell the gunman she had no money at which point police say they are unclear on what took place after. The two suspects fled and are still at large.
