HOUSTON – A man is accused of shooting his children’s mother’s boyfriend multiple times following an argument at a north Houston apartment complex late Saturday night.

According to the Houston Police Department, officers responded around 11:20 p.m. to an apartment complex in the 15100 block of Vickery Drive for a reported shooting.

Investigators said the shooting stemmed from an argument between the suspect and the mother of his children. During the confrontation, the suspect allegedly shot the woman’s boyfriend four times.

The victim was struck in the arm, abdomen, stomach and leg. He was transported by vehicle to a local hospital, where he was reported to be in stable condition.

According to police, officers gathered information from everyone at the scene and identified the suspect. Although the suspect was not at the apartment complex when officers arrived, he later returned voluntarily after officers contacted him.

Investigators will present the case to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office to determine whether charges will be accepted.

Police said the investigation remains ongoing, and there is no threat to the public.
