The shooting on Thursday came more than five months after a similar incident left another man dead at the same apartment complex.
The Advenir at the Med Center apartment complex became a crime scene on Thursday after police say a man trying to stop car burglars was killed.For at least the second time in more than five months, Houston police are investigating a deadly shooting at a South Loop apartment complex in which a person died while trying to stop someone from breaking into vehicles.
HPD officers were called to the area just after 11 a.m. when they located a man's body just outside of the complex's gate. The suspects took off from the scene and remain on the run, as of 3 p.m. The suspects may be teens or younger men. The shooter, in particular, may have been wearing a green hoodie.As for the victim, investigators believe the man in his 30s was dating someone who lived there or dating the sister of a resident, but Eyewitness News learned from the sister of the victim's girlfriend that the man and his partner were not residents there.
Police believe the burglars were able to get into a vehicle and may have taken a purse inside a truck belonging to either the victim or the victim's girlfriend before moving on to another vehicle next to it.Thursday's deadly confrontation reportedly played out similarly to one over the summer at the same apartment complex., 25-year-old Blake Deion Davenport was shot to death and his girlfriend was injured when they exchanged fire with another man at the Advenir at the Med Center.
