HOUSTON – Police are investigating after they said two people were shot during a home invasion in northeast Houston early Tuesday.
It happened around 3 a.m. at a home located at 12900 block of Harvey Lane.
According to officers, arriving units found a man with gunshot wounds and a woman with a minor gunshot wound. Police said there were at least three people at the home.
Upon further investigation, officers discovered there had been a home invasion. Two people in their 30s returned home from a game room when a car pulled into the driveway. The woman went to secure the door when two suspects burst into the home, Lt. Pavel with the Houston Police Department said.
Pavel said the suspects demanded money and then shot the man four times and the woman three times. The woman’s daughter, who is around 13 years old, was sleeping inside her room when the incident happened and was likely awoken by gunfire, police said.
Both the man and woman will survive their wounds.
Police said security cameras likely captured what happened. The suspects’ descriptions match from previous incidents in the area.
