Man hospitalized after allegedly being shot during verbal argument with woman in SE Houston

  • April 9, 2026

Police are investigating a shooting that occurred late Wednesday morning in southeast Houston.

According to dispatch information, officers were called to the scene around 11:05 a.m. after reports of a roadway shooting in the 5400 block of the Gulf Freeway.

Our Sky 2 Chopper is over the scene, capturing a large police presence.

Two white pickup trucks are parked near the intersection with their doors open, and a METRO bus is parked behind them. It remains unclear what role each of these vehicles played in the incident.

Preliminary details indicate that a man and a woman were involved in a verbal argument that escalated.

During the confrontation, a firearm was discharged, and a man was struck.

Authorities confirmed the man was transported from the scene for medical treatment. The condition of the victim has not yet been released.

Houston Police Department officers remain on scene as the investigation continues.

We’re working to find out what led up to the argument or whether anyone is in custody.
