CONROE, Texas – A suspect who was shot after police say he fired his weapon inside a residence in Conroe died Tuesday, police said.
The suspect has been identified as Larry Marquail Mixon III, of Stafford, Texas.
According to the Conroe Police Department, officers responded to a weapons disturbance around 7:30 p.m. in the 500 block of E. Phillips Street.
Prior to the shooting, Mixon was reportedly involved in two disturbances at a local business, according to a release. Police said there was no known relationship between Mixon and the two residents of the incident address.
Police said Mixon arrived at the address, had an incoherent verbal altercation with the residents, pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the victims. He then left the location, only to return within minutes as officers were responding.
