HOUSTON — Two adults were discovered dead from gunshot wounds inside a southeast Houston home early Sunday, and police say they are searching for a suspect who they believe carried out the attack.
Response and scene
Officers were dispatched about 2:20 a.m. to a house in the 12800 block of Glen Hollow Drive after a report of shots fired. When they entered the residence, they located two deceased individuals — a man and a woman — who investigators believe were in their 20s or 30s. Authorities have not released the victims' names.
