A homicide investigation is underway after a man was chased down and shot to death in a north Houston neighborhood.
Houston Police Department officers responded to the scene on Melbourne Street near Jensen Drive around 1 a.m. Friday. The victim was transported to a hospital, where he later died.
Investigators believe the suspects were in a black SUV when they pursued the victim, who had been walking down the street.
“The suspects opened fire on the victim, who collapsed a short distance from where he was shot,” said HPD Lt. T. Riley. “The suspect vehicle then fled in an unknown direction.”
Police are still working to identify the victim and currently have no description of the suspects.
