Because Houston police are in the preliminary stages of their investigation, they weren’t able to share a lot of details.
However, HPD Officer J. Bryant said around 2:45 a.m., a family member flagged officers down for a disturbance at an apartment complex on Richmond Avenue and Westminster Plaza Drive in Westchase.
When the police got to the apartment, Officer Bryant noted there was blood at the scene and one of the occupants, an unidentified man, came outside and had blood on him as well, so he was detained at the scene. It’s unclear what charges (if any) he’ll face, but he will be taken in for questioning, Officer Bryant confirmed.
