HOUSTON \u2013 A 21-year-old man was shot and killed outside a north Houston apartment complex Thursday night, according to the Harris County Sheriff\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n
Deputies said the shooting happened just before midnight at the Marybell Apartments located in the 22900 block of Imperial Valley Drive.<\/p>\n
Authorities said a tenant called 911 after hearing multiple gunshots coming from outside the complex. When patrol deputies and EMS crews arrived, they found a 21-year-old man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.<\/p>\n
Investigators said first responders attempted lifesaving measures, but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n
Witnesses told investigators they heard a barrage of gunfire overnight before seeing emergency crews performing CPR on the victim outside the apartment complex.<\/p>\n
Homicide detectives spent the early morning hours interviewing neighbors, collecting evidence, and reviewing surveillance video from the property to determine exactly what led up to the shooting.<\/p>\n
Investigators are also searching for a possible vehicle that was seen leaving the area around the time of the gunfire.<\/p>\n
The victim\u2019s mother, identified only as Yolanda, told investigators she believes her son may have been targeted and set up before the shooting.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe young lady ended up taking his life,\u201d the victim\u2019s mother said. \u201cWhoever she was with … she stood over him and shot him 29 times.\u201d<\/p>\n
The mother told investigators several people had been taking photos with her son shortly before the shooting happened.<\/p>\n
So far, authorities have not released any suspect information or identified a possible motive in the case.<\/p>\n
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Harris County Sheriff\u2019s Office or Crime Stoppers.<\/p>\n
