A woman is dead and a man was found shot in the head inside a vehicle in what deputies with Harris County Sheriff’s Office believe is an attempted murder-suicide in northwest Harris County.
It happened in the 13000 block of Tomball Parkway at around 2:15 a.m. early Saturday.
According to HCSO Sgt. Dennis Wolfford, the couple, who were apparently in a relationship, were in a vehicle that did not belong to them. Family members on the scene told deputies that the couple had agreed to meet with the owner at the parking lot.
Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said in a tweet that the woman was attempting to end her relationship with the man. At some point, shots were fired.
When deputies arrived at the scene, the woman, who was in the passenger seat, was found unresponsive with a gunshot wound. She was pronounced dead.
The man was also found with a gunshot wound to the head. Deputies said he was found holding a gun in his hand. He was transported to an area hospital where he remains in critical condition.
It was unclear if the owner of the vehicle arrived prior to the shooting.
Investigation at 13003 SH-249 S remains on-going. The incident is consistent with murder/attempted suicide. It was learned the deceased female and the suspect were in a dating relationship and she was attempting to end the relationship. Male remains hospitalized.
