HOUSTON — Two people are dead and one person was injured Saturday in a possible drive-by shooting in southwest Houston, police said.
The shooting happened at about 4:40 p.m. on Fleetwell Drive near Heatherbloom Drive.
Police said the three victims, who are all men, were hanging outside of a home when someone drove up and started shooting at them. Police are not sure if more than one shooter was involved.
One of the men died on scene. The second man ran to Buffalo Speedway near Darlinghurst Drive where he died. The third man was taken to a nearby hospital with non life-threatening injuries.
Brandon Forbes, 23, was one of the men who died, according to his family. They say he was a hard worker who had a job at Ikea. In his off time, he loved working on cars and four-wheelers.
'He worked so hard to get where he at today and now my son is gone," said Brandon's mother, Cindy Forbes.
Police don't know why this happened. They don't think this was a random act, but extra patrols will be in the area Saturday night.
No one is in custody.
Anyone with information on this incident is urged to call the Houston Police Department Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-8477.
